Hi all.

I just want to tell a success story.

I managed to run Oracle 9i on a FreeBSD 5.0-Release box.

The steps were as follows:
- install Oracle 9i on a Linux RedHat 7.2 box
- copy the whole thing on the FreeBSD box
- apply the kernel patches supplied by Georg.Koltermann@mscsoftware.com
- tune the kernel as stated in
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/linuxemu-oracle.html
but using the values specified by Oracle for 9i
- install the modified kernel
- run it!

Watch out.. I didn't test it yet... but it started normally
without any error/warning and I can connect from a windows
box using Oracle DBA Studio.. I'll report more later after
some tests..

Thanks to all who replied and especially to Georg Kolterman

Best regards.
