Does Oracle Linux use the same version numbering? Right now it's "RHEL/CentOS/SL 5" - is that equivalent of "Oracle Linux 5", and "RHEL/CentOS/SL 6" is equivalent of "Oracle Linux 6"?
Yes, that's correct - the major version numbers and the respective update releases of Oracle Linux are equivalent to upstream RHEL.
What's the typical abbreviation used for Oracle Linux? OL?
Yes, even though the long variant is preferred. It's definitely *not* "OEL" or "Unbreakable Linux" - these brand names have been obsoleted more than three years ago.
