You need to have xwindows setup in order to install oracle 8i. Type in at the prompt 'clock' . If you do get analog clock, means you have xwindows setup. Otherwise you have to set it up. talk to your unix admin, you might be having some xwindows tools. If you don't have find some third party tools like xwin-32 from Start inc. whatever...

login as oracle user and at the comand prompt say
startx

and then do thisUse a text editor to edit the .bash_profile file in the oracle account home directory.
$ emacs ~oracle/.bash_profile

You may get this error:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
emacs: Cannot connect to X server :0.
Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.
Also use the `xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit
connections from your machine.

If so, do the following.
Open a new terminal window.
$ xhost +localhost
Now, back in the oracle terminal
$ export DISPLAY=localhost:0
$ emacs ~oracle/.bash_profile


Start a new terminal
$ xhost +localhost
$ su - oracle
Enter oracle password
$ export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0



Try this procedure
