Ocfs2 users - Dec 2006 - re: has anyone tried debian + ocfs2 + 10gR2 RAC

Folks,
	We would like to evaluate how ocfs2 will work with a debian distribution.
	Most of our systems people favor debian and so we are evaluating whether
	debian and ocfs2 work nicely + oracle 10gR2 rac.

	I know that debian is not supported by Oracle, but this is only for testing.

	Has anyone had experience with this?  If so can you provide details on the
setup?

I found it very easy to install and use ocfs2 on debian. I used snippets 
from the below links to get it working. On the second link things get 
interesting starting chapter 16.

Good luck ;)
