Just wondering what = others=20 experiences are installing this version.

Did you perhaps find that there is no new version of the = Oracle Home=20 Selector?

And that = even if you=20 hack the registry so that the old OHS can find the new =
Oracle 10g registry entries, it still does = not set the=20 PATH correctly?

There = are at least=20 2 OH path entries now for 10g.  The standard OH/bin and =
now the OH/jre/bin.  OHS does not = correctly alter=20 the PATH by moving both
entries to the=20 front of the list.

I = say 'at least=20 two' because during installation it occurred that the PATH on =
my laptop would exceed 1023 characters and = I chose to=20 ignore the error.

Perhaps a=20 re-install would fix this.

sigh...=20  silly me.  I thought the days of worrying about PATH size = were=20 over.
