    has the 9iR2 releases.
    Doubt whether you’ll find 9iR1 any where, and you need a support contract to obtain patches. Generally you’ve got no need to be on a specific patchset for training/study. The only reason you’d want all the bug fixes is if you are running a production database (or wanting a working environment to closely mirror a production environment) in which case you’ll have the appropriate support contract.
