RE: How to install APT-GET or YUM or RPM or something similar on Linpus?

I've installed Oracle Linux. It works quite well. However, DosBox (which I used often) fails to run because I don't seem to be able to install SDL. I've planned to run my favorite Windows programs using WINE, however, I can't. Namely, the WINE's WOW64 (required to run 32-bit Windows apps on 64-bit Linux) doesn't work on Oracle Linux, and there appears to be no workaround. Too bad, almost none of my favorite Windows apps (not even FlatAssembler) have 64-bit versions. I've therefore installed Oracle's VirtualBox. Most of my Windows apps work well in it, however one of my Windows apps doesn't run well with only 128 MB GRAM (which is the maximum VirtualBox supports, it's really... legacy). I guess I'll have to deal with that.
