Hey
I have removed the existing Oracle8 (Uncompleted Installation) and Installed it again. I too downloaded glibcpatch.tgz from ftp.oracle.com. But the problem is My linux system doesn't have Internet connection that's why i downloaded from Win95 system and transferred onto the linux server through email. when i tried unzip with tar command, its giving invalid compressed data--format violated. With this error, I am unable to get forward the installation without this patch.

Advise me.
