You should probably be a little more specific. I have installed Oracle Database Server Enterprise Edition 9i and 10g on CentOS 3, 4 and 5, it runs just fine. IIRC (its been a few months since I've installed any of them), you need to do a fair number of manual steps, you should follow the Oracle release notes on running RDBMS on RHEL.
