I am interested in the possibility of running a small-scale oracle

I found this:

    http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/HOWTO_Install_Oracle_10g

But it isn't in English... or, I think, up to date.  Is there a howto
for a currently available oracle download I can follow?  Does anyone on
this list run oracle on their Gentoo install?

I used this how-to as a rough guideline a few years ago when I setup a test server on Gentoo. It's RHEL based, but isn't too hard to adapt to Gentoo... IIRC the lib-compat stuff was the only thing I needed to do ... and the path stuff was annoying as well. He also includes some tuning stuff for actually using the db which is nice.
