Linux install failing

Hi, I am installing Oracle 8.1.7 into RH 7.1 and, thanks to some help from Blair kennedy, was able to get the Installer running. I selected the minimum install and it runs smoothly for about two-thirds of the way. I now get an error message to the effect that something is failing in .../precomp/lib/ins_precomp.mk

Any help would be appreciated! I think that I have done all of the things I'm supposed to (installing the 6.2 compatability packages, setting LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5, running i386-glibc21-linux-env.sh), but it's possible that I missed something.

Thanks, Martin
