I agree with your definitions....but the cold backup in archivelog mode is
fundamentally different from one done in noarchivelog more (with respect to
online redo logs and control files) if you are in archivelog mode and want
to be able to do point in time recovery.

OK let's get the definitions down first. AFAIK:
cold backup := database shut down and an OS copy of all the necessary files.
hot backup := place TS in backup mode, the do an OS copy of the files
for that TS.
first can be done to any database, second only to databases in
archivelog mode.
