b. It is suggested your database server has two physical disks or two logical partitions when install Oracle 10g Release2 software. The Oracle 10g Release2 software is suggested to install on D:\ drive if your machine has two or more disk drives. The disk space required to install Oracle 10g Release2 binary software for Standard Edition is about 1.6GB including database and companion CD. Your database machine should have at least 500 MB RAM to install Oracle 10G And create demo size database. c. There are two installations for Oracle 10g Release2: . Oracle 10G Release2 Database CD; .
