There are several way to do it; edit /etc/redhat-release, if you are installing from files rather than CDs edit Disk1/install/oraparam.ini or try runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs. Also you might find FC3 just works anyway as I don't think the installer is very clever and I suspect it might confuse FC3 with RHEL3. Michael Young
