Hi there.

I have a similiar problem with Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 under Linux (Debian, Woody, Kernel 2.4.20-686-smp).
The installation worked fine - at least no error message was shown, but when I start the dbca to create a database, I get an ORA-03113. I've searched over the internet (newsgroups and webpages), but I didn't find a solution for my problem.
I searched for the libc-patch, but I think it's deprecated for Oracle 9i.
Many ppl said, like you, I just should generate the scripts with the wizard and create the database manually, so I did - or at least I tried.

So, I just wanted to test, if the login works, but it didn't. Is startet "sqlplus /nolog" and tried "connect SYS/change_on_install as SYSDBA" ("conn / as SYSDBA" has the same effect, ORACLE_SID set as said in the script) and I get:

        Connected to an idle instance.

Ok, I think this is just normal and I tried to start the database using "startup nomount pfile="Correct path to init.ora";

And then, all I get is an ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

If I try to do a "conn /" afterwards, I get

	ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
	ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
	Linux Error: 2: No such file or directory

Any suggestions, what could be wrong? I installed the Enterprise Version, so it can't be an Enterprise setting ... it has to be a problem in the "init.ora", right?

System specs if required:
Pentium II, 800 (2x - multi processor)
1024MB RAM
4GB Swap
19GB diskspace free
Debian Linux (woody)
Kernel 2.4.20-686-smp

Any help would be appreciated.
