I had installed SOA10.1.3.4 on Weblogic9.2 on Windows platform in 2008, when it was out first time. I had to install it on linux (single node) few days back, and it was simply perfect. I got it up and running in less than 2days. This blog entry is of good help. Also since I had a 11g DB, this entry is crucial.
I was stuck at one point while applying a patch to SOA10.1.3.4, and was getting opatch error - ERROR: "The Oracle Home does not meet OUI version requirement. OPatch failed with error code 73" [ID 729218.1]. This got resolved by using the 10.1 version of opatch patch#6880880.
It will be interesting to upgrade customer platforms running on 10g (10.1.3.4) to 10g (10.1.3.5) / weblogic10.3 or to 11g. The installation for sure is much simplified.
