I want to start learning oracle database(I have FEDORA 14 (64 BIT)), So what I will need to setup oracle database development environment. Please can anyone guide me? Basically I need a database server and a simple client ONLY FOR LEARNING. I went to the oracle website but there was a 2GB setup, so I thought to be advised by experts before downloading it.

Oracle Express Edition is the one you want. Free to use and good for learning. There's an 11gR2 version in beta. I'd expect that to go to full release in the next month. If you can't wait, then go with the 10gR2 one. No sense in mucking around with a Beta edition when you are new.

Install guide for linux is (currently) here


On 64bit Linux, I'd go for the Beta version of Express Edition (11g) which is only available in 64 bit (except the Windows version is 32 bit).
