Oracle was claiming last fall that Oracle Financials (version 10?) would be released for Linux some time in 1999.

They haven't been trumpeting its release just yet.

SAP AG, however have released version 4.0B, which runs atop Red Hat Linux 6.0, with a custom-configured kernel 2.2.11. (per OSS note 171356).

According to OSS note 171371, R/3 on Linux is certified by SAP LinuxLab to run on several Compaq ProLiant models, with either 4GB or 8GB of RAM, and up to 8-way SMP. (I'm describing the configs generically; only a specific set of models and configurations are validated to work...)
