I think it's against the Oracle license to run it under any kind of
emulation (which is what you would have to do with FreeBSD, run it under
Linux emulation).. All that's void if they support FreeBSD natively now
(which I don't think they do)..
Wouldn't this be a better question for an Oracle list since this has nothing
to do with PostgreSQL? (Just a friendly suggestion) :-)
Good luck!!
