Well, Ritschie, youre might be right but, Oracle Patches are only available for Oracle 8.0.5.E.E. This must be the Enterprise Edition. I have loaded the Oracle trial release
from Oracle.COM. This is pre-linked with the glibc20 instead the actual used glibc21. A new installation
from the original cdrom (original oracle trial cdrom) or the downloaded version will not been successfully relinked. that the installation procedure will abort if the installer will attempt to build the first database.
There is'nt any patch available for 8.0.5.0.0 and the available patch does'nt usable for 8.0.5.0.0.
