10g on vmware

Yesterday I installed a 10gR2 Oracle database on Suse Linux. Nothing special about that off course, but I did it on my Windows XP laptop using vmware workstation.
With vmware you can create virtual machines with their own operating system.
It takes a lot of resources from your laptop, but it was fun to install it.
Just remember that Oracle does not support vmware in a production environment....see also
