It will work just fine. All the stuff we do with Spacewalk is pushed upstream, so it's included with 2.9 (including ULN support). However, when your POC is complete and if you decide to go forward with Spacewalk as a platform, I strongly recommend using the build provided by Oracle so that it is fully supported as part of your Oracle Linux support subscription. If you move forward with the Oracle build, a limited-use license for Oracle Database Enterprise Edition is included so that you can run Spacewalk on EE (not XE). If you really don't want to do that, you can run with PostgreSQL but we won't support the DB bits (we'll support the rest of Spacewalk, if it came from Oracle).
