Re: Problem creating a database : Linux Oracle EE 8.1.6

I have seen notes on the Technet news group that suggest a problem with the LIBC
library that is shipped with Redhat 7.0, I was hoping it was only a myth, but it now
starting to look LESS than hopeful. Perhaps you should go back to Redhat 6.2, where
I know people have succeeded installing a Oracle 8.1.6 Release 2 database. (Even
on a laptop install!!)

Can you let me know if you have any more positive response of work arounds, as I would
like to keep my Redhat 7.0 install if possible as well.

Cheers
Jason
