Officially NO. Coming to your second part of the question, yes, I managed to install 8i under XP Sp1. But the Oracle Service will refuse to start. The work around is to set the service to manual and start the server using svrmgr tool. To do this open a cmd prompt window and type svrmgr (or is it svrmgrl ?). login using system and manager as the username / password. then give the command start at the svrmgr prompt.
Oracle service will be up and running under XP. Now to shutdown the service, all you need to do is issue the stop command in the svrmgr console. This worked for me.
