I recently installed Oracle 9.2 on my Linux PC and Notebook and the installation and creation of the sample dataware house went fine.

I then upgraded my notebook to SuSE Linux 8.1. I was forced to make a complete reinstallation because the upgrade was bad.

I also accidently formatted the partitions erasing everthing.

I Then re-installed Oracle 9.2 with problems

When it came time to run the 4 optional installations the installer couldn't find the jre. I used the blackdown jre 1.1.8 v3 and the installation completed with success. - The database was up after installation but after a reboot I couldn't start the database because sqlplus would give the error : ... SQL> startup ORA-07217: sltln: environment variable cannot be evaluated.

My notebook is a toshiba 4000CDS with a Pentium II 233MHz

Hope someone can help.
