You can still download the installation file - if you have a high-speed
internet connection.

Subject: RE: Oracle 10g Install - Most Current Version
I'm trying to load by NFS mounting over to another machine that has a
DVD and am having poor results (the installer keeps stumbling over
reading some files). Oracle has been working on it for a week. Looks
like I may have to sping for a DVD reader on my target server. I
understand why they want to go to DVD format, but many of us are not
there yet...

My point is that its hard enough to keep up with all the latest SW
updates and all the headaches while trying to get other products to work
with the new SW (The CM nightmare). Now you also have to ensure that
the Server HW has a DVD readable drive. Many "boxes" now have DVD drive
by default but I can tell you that one of my older SOLARIS boxes at home
(and many at work [Government contract] don't) and now I'm forced to
upgrade my older box simply because one of my "choices" has just gone
away. At work I don't care ( OK I care alittle bit) because the SA now
have to address this issue.
I had no problems install Oracle when it was on multiple disks.

Yes, that's true. One of the "advantages" of 10gr2 is that it all fits
on one disc - which happens to be a DVD (since it's too big to fit on a
CD).

Be advised , since this was a suprise to me.
When I got the Oracle10.2 "CD PACK" , the Oracle DB and the Oracle 10.2
Grig Control where all on DVD's.
When I got the Oracle 10.1 "CD PACK", sometime last year, I got CDROMS
and an additional copy on DVD all in the "CD PACK".

Yes, you should be able to download 10gr2 from otn. Also, assuming you
purchased support & have a MetaLink account, you can request the CP pack
to be sent to you. Use a TAR/SR to do this.

Subject: Oracle 10g Install - Most Current Version
We purchased Oracle 10g approximately 16 months ago, but for various
reasons, have not upgraded from 8i yet, but am planning on this in the
near future.
Rather the load from the CD packs I received and applying all the
relevant patches, does Oracle provide the latest install version on the
net?
Thanks all!
