Where I can download sample database which can be used for data warehouse creation? It should't be sample from Microsoft (Northwind etc.).

EDIT: Sorry for not clarifying my question. At my university we have class where we must create some data warehouse and since Northwind is so popular over net then professor told us not to use this database. We will use for this SQL Server 2008 but using Northwind is forbidden.

This is a free online database data generator: www.generatedata.com

You can design a table structure and let the script generate rows to populate it. It's not exactly what you need, but I think it can help.
