runInstaller works only the "even" times.

I am new to Oracle, and trying to write down steps for installing Oracle ( please don't laugh, they are in the documentation already, but I would like to have my doc for a specific platofrm configuration so that the next time I don't need to look for the *multiple-OS* instructions in Oracle doc ).

Last week I installed Oracle 9i on a V210 Solaris Sparc 9 12/03 without any problem.
Today I reinstalled everything ( including the OS ) and then Oracle. The Oracle installtion went fine, except one problem :

The first time I ran ./runInstaller it failed and no Installer screen displayed at all . The 2nd time I ran it, it worked. I stopped the installation process of the 2nd time, rebooted the system, and tried again. Same thing : first time failed, 2nd time works.

The following is the out put of the first time and second time of running runInstaller. This did not happend last week when I first installed Oracle on the same system.

Note : the only difference is last week I used a 30G scsi drive, and today I use a 70G scsi drive.

[ or because today is Fri 13 :-) ]

I appreciate your advice,

Thanks,

Vu
