Hi all, I am trying to install the Oracle8 for Linux (pre-release version) into 
my rh 5.2 box.  I have the following error messages during the middle of middle 
of the extracting files into the server ( Some files and directroy did got 
extracted successfully into the HD ) After these messages, it kicked me out 
back to the Linux login prompt.  I have tried a few times and it still give me 
the same problem.  I used the INSTALL script from the for the installation.
I have create an ID : oracle8 (dba group) for the oracle installation.  This ID 
also own the directory /opt/u01/app/oracle/product downward.  ORACLE_HOME is 
set to /opt/u01/app/oracle/product/8.0.5. 
 
Can anybody help ???  
 
I have a totoal of 300 MB for /opt and this is only a test server and I do not 
expect to create any databases bigger than 5 MB.  Currently I only have 32 MB 
RAM but planning on putting additional 32MB more for Oracle.
Many thanks......
