The installation of Oracle 10g on SLES9 x86 is a lot easier than the one on AMD64 so this document is going to be a sort of cut and paste of the x86-64 version without the parts not needed due to thenative 32 bit architecture.
As always any feedback (even negative) can be sent to fabrizio.magni _at_ europe.com

Usual notes before starting:
 

Since my last document lot of things changed: a new release of oracle was released, a new SuSE service pack for SLES9 and a new orarun.
For this reason I decided to write a new documentation which is going to explain how much easier is to install 10g on the SLES9 (and, of course, on SuSE Professional 9.2).
