Newbie needs help installing 90 day Solaris x86 Oracle trial

I'm trying to get the 90 trial of Oracle 7.1 Workgroup Server up and running
on my Solaris 2.4 x86 computer. I'm having several difficulties and am
extremely hampered by my newness to Oracle. One is trying to get into the
User Manager so I can add a new user. When I start the User Manager, the
default Username is SYSTEM and the default Database is ORCL. What's the
password to the SYSTEM username and is this the user I need to log in as to
add users? It's not the same password as I entered when I installed the trial
(the one I typed for the Database Password Manager). In "Appendix B:
Advanced Administration" is says the password to the SYS account is
'change_on_install'. Not it either. What is it?
I also can't start the online documentation. When I click on the Help button from otoolbar, it brings up an xterm and asks me if I want to continue with the Online Document installation or whether I just want to bring up Oracle Book. Oracle Books acts like it is starting but when the two windows are fully mapped, they just dissapear. How do I get at the Online Documentation?
And lastly, 'tnslsnr' is eating up all my CPU cycles. Here's what top has to say.
PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND 3870 oracle7 -15 0 2484K 640K run 15:25 43.75% 94.44% tnslsnr
tnslsnr is started with the 'tcp_listener -inherit' arguments. truss reports that tnslsnr is repeatedly calling (the ordering may be reversed):
poll(0x080438FC, 1, 0) = 0 gettimeofday(0x08045B00) = 0
Appended to this email is the output from 'tnslsnr' from the installation.
If anyone can offer and advice I'd appreciate it! I'm trying to get a lot of this going this weekend...
