Oracle 19c install

Hi

Can someone please explain what rpm installs are please? I normally do /used to manual installs .i.e

O/S admin ensures all pre-reqs are met, kernal settings etc

As dba I usually unip and install Oracle via LINUX.X64_193000_db_home.zip

then use oracle installer to install the S/W

But in docs etc I now see references to :-

oracle-database-preinstall-19c-1.0-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

and

oracle-database-ee-19c-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm

(1) Are these RPMs needed?

(2)What are they?

(3)Where do you download oracle-database-preinstall-19c-1.0-1.el7.x86_64.rpm from?

(4)Which method is better manual or rpm

(5)Anything else I need to know

Howdy, Stranger!
