I have Solaris 10 x86 runs as guest OS on VMWare server (host OS is WinXP Pro). My objective is to install Oracle database on the guest OS, but I'm not sure which release of Oracle database will be compatible for the specified requirement.<br />
<br />
In Solaris, if I run this command from command line: /usr/bin/isainfo -kv<br />
and it will output: 32-bit i386 kernel modules.<br />
<br />
Now my question, is Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.3) for Solaris x86 compatible with Solaris 10 x86 (32-bit)? if not, what will be the compatible version?<br />
<br />
I would appreciate any helpful comments anyone might have.<br />

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
