Are you sure that there is no deinstall option in the Oracle7.3 installer?
There should be a deinstall option in the Oracle7.3 installer and oracle
documentation DOES suggest you to deinstall the previous version of Oracle
and then freshly install a new one. You CANNOT use the installer on Oracle 8
to deinstall the Oracle 7.3.
