Im having issues with the install of emulators/ linux_base... doesnt like linux-XFree86-libs-4.3.99.902_4 Not sure if this lib does the same in terms of linux gcc etc? I did read that the 10g install goes a whole lot smoother than the 9i... havent had a chance to really dive into the install yet though... Eoghan
