Out of Memory

I am getting:

SQL> startup nomount
ORA-27102: out of memory

Machine Specs:

0) Oracle 8i 8.1.7
1) Sun Solaris 8 fully patched
2) SparcStation5 70Mhz
3) 128MB Ram
4) 256B Swap

5) /etc/system

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=10
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=200
set semsys:seminfo_semopm=100
set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767

6) initSID.ora
JAVA_POOL_SIZE=0
LARGE_POOL_SIZE=0
SHARED_POOL_SIZE=2097152
SORT_AREA_SIZE=262144
db_block_buffers=1048576
log_buffer=1048576

Can someone give me some tips as to where I need to look next.

My system is not running DT/CDE/OW GUI so there is plenty of memory available for Oracle, about 81MB Ram and the whole Swap at system startup before I start Oracle. How come Oracle still insists I am out of memory?
