    Silent install of the oracle 11gr2 client

    I am trying to install an Oracle client on a crusty old Fedora Core 3 server. I wasn't able to get x-windows working so I decided to do a silent install, and ran into an issue with the server not having swap space. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get around this? Thanks.

    Code:
    [oracle-ldap-01] ~/product/client > ./runInstaller -silent -ignorePrereq -force -responseFile client_install.rsp 
    Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
    
    Checking Temp space: must be greater than 80 MB.   Actual 3230 MB    Passed
    Checking swap space: 0 MB available, 150 MB required.    Failed <<<<
    
    Some requirement checks failed. You must fulfill these requirements before
    
    continuing with the installation,

    Cool

    Try this:
    Code:
    ./runInstaller -silent -ignorePrereq -responseFile ...etc...

    That is almost the same command that I was using. No luck.

    [oracle-ldap-01] ~/product/client > ./runInstaller -silent -ignoreSysPrereq -noconfig -ignorePrereq -responseFile client_install.rsp

    Talking

    Or....Re-size a partition and create the swap.
