Mount points are actually (empty) directories, so you should delete those files and create (with oracle -user) equally named directories instead.

Then you could say (as root)
mount /dev/sda4 /opt/oracle/u01
(or whereever you have those directories)

Then you have disk partition sda4 mounted as directory u01. Same procedure should be used also for other mount points.

You should have those partitions on-line and formatted before mounting, otherwise mount will fail.
