Hi,

Redhat 9.0 is not a "supported" version of Linux. Nevertheless, many people are using Oracle on RH9.0 without any major problems.

To trick the installer, edit your "/etc/redhat-release" file and change the version to one that is supported. You probably want to save the previous version of your "redhat-release" file to a different name, and put it back when you are done with the installation.

Best regards.

Frank
