ora9iR2 installation on RH9

[hamhey]

Hi all,
Iam trying to install oracle 9i R2 on Redhat 9 on Intel platform.
There are lots of instructions available on the net.
But I must say I tried two and no noe worked.
I need instruction that you have tried and is tested.

Thanks in advance Hamhey

Hi,
Oracle 9i Release 2 is not certifed for RedHat 9 on Intel platform but there is a workaround to it to get it installed.The following is the workaround:
1)set the "LD_ASSUME_KERNEL" environment variable to "2.4.1"
2)Start the installer
3)I ignored the int_oemagent.mk linker error (its not important for
me).
4) But after this error you will get a second linker error when linking "ins_ctx.mk". That linker error can be resolved by changing one line in inst_ctx.mk (add -ldl option for linker)

Original Line: $(LINK) $(CTXHXOBJ) $(INSO_LINK)
Replacment Line: $(LINK) -ldl $(CTXHXOBJ) $(INSO_LINK)
