Alan:
It appears that Oracle left out the part about create the oracle link directory and linking the files to it it the install guide. I ran into the same thing
on the install of 7.3.2 to HP/UX 10.10. Just use the same as in 7.2.x

1. create the mount_point for the cdrom
2. cd /mount_point/ORAINST
3. run ./START.SH
4. it will ask for your oracle_link_directory.
