Actually the heading should have been: “No more running Oracle on Ubuntu”.
After reading Wim Coekaerts blog about personal use of Oracle Linux, I realized how quick and easy you can get an Oracle database environment up and running. After 1-2 hours of downloading and installing, the Oracle Linux was running on my VirtualBox.
After some more reading I found this article about Oracle 11g R2 pre-install on the Oracle Linux Blog. After another 15-20 minuttes of running the pre-install, my linux environment are ready for the Oracle database install. Why bother running my personal Oracle developer database on Ubuntu?
Running the Oracle RDBMS software installation I did get some failures on the pre-check, but just ignoring and continuing worked just fine.
No need or reason to run Oracle on Ubuntu anymore!
