Has anyone had any problems upgrading to FC6 when Oracle 10g R2 is installed? I'm thinking of upgrading, but can't afford to hose my database. Installing it on FC5 was no picnic.

Thanks.

I've installed Oracle 10g R2 on FC4, then install FC5, then install FC6 (fresh install, not upgrade) and reuse the same Oracle installation (separated filesystem) wihtout any problem.

Installing Oracle on FC6 is a "picnic" ;)

Remi.

P.S. of course, a backup seems required.

Thanks! Yes, I will backup just in case.
