Oracle's RH derivitive has a different mission than Centos.  Their distro is 
pre-configured to handle typical Oracle DB  workloads by shipping with 
different kernel settings, modules and apps that are not part of standard 
RH.  It is primarily meant to ease Oracle deployments for shops that have a 
great amount of RH in-house knowledge and expertise.  Their version is not 
meant to be a general purpose server platform.

While they offer compatibility with stock RH, you need to do further 
configuration if you want something closer to a clone distro.
