Installing OEL6 on Asus G75V

-
I wanted to install Oracle Enterprise Linux 6 on my ASUS G75V laptop and encountered some issues.

1. Secure boot
If you try to boot from a bootable usb drive, or a bootable cd/dvd you will get "Signature" error and the installation will not start, its because the BIOS has a setting called as Secure Boot, which does not allow unsigned software to be installed. You can bypass this by going to BIOS setup and disable the Secure Boot.

2. X Window start to failed
Because the Asus has NVEDIA Graphics card the GUI based installation fails to start and the installation starts in the console mode. The implication is the Linux installed will have minimal drivers and is n

How to mount a WD Book Live as NFS in OEL6U3

-
Scenario : I have a Windows 8 (Host) laptop on which I am running two OEL6U3 (Guest) machines in a Virtual Box. I want to have a shared mount between the two Linux machine which will allow me to read/write from both the machines concurrently. Its a very common scenario for a High Availability Environment. Virtual Box provides a facility of creating sharable VDI disks which can be mounted on multiple machines, but it doesn’t allow concurrent read/write access from multiple machines. If you are installing RAC database then its still achievable, because ASM will provide the feature of concurrent read/writes, but if you want to install a WebLogic cluster with High Availability the recommended approach would be to have a Shared Mount. Step to create a shared nfs mount is fairly simple. I am using a WD My Book Live, and will mount the Public folder as shared mount 1. Get the hostname/ip of the WD device. 2. On the Linux Machine 1 create the folder where you want to mount the nfs ...
