Help on ORACLE 7 Installation Problems.

Hi,

	I would appreciate if any one can suggest me solution for
	the problems faced in ORACLE 7 Installation on MIPS EP/IX.

	MIPS installation manual recommends to form a Oracle Base
	Structure for installation but i couldn't do the same because
	of disk space.

	We have nearly 40mb on root filesystem and we have made a
	symbolic link to another filesystem /usr1/tmp as its 
	recommended to have 250mb disk space on /tmp.

	Now, the problem is after loading all the core software into
	disk and while installing the software the system gives an error
	message saying "/: write failed, file system full" and we have
	to interrupt the installation.

	I fail to understand why this happens.As iam not a regular
	reader of news mail your suggestions to tramesh_at_ittb.ernet.in.
	Thanks in anticipation.
