Help on creating a new database

Hello every one,

I have installed Oracle software and I am trying to create a new database. I have followed the instructions in the guide without success. This what I have done.

1. create a file inittest.ora then edit it from the file init.ora
2. start the server manager (svrmgrl)
3. make : connect internal
4. make : startup nomount (the message that I got is:

SVRMGR> startup nomount
ORACLE instance started.

Total System Global Area       4183576 bytes
Fixed Size                       39696 bytes
Variable Size                  4012808 bytes
Database Buffers                122880 bytes
Redo Buffers                      8192 bytes

I got the error message:

SVRMGR> create database test;
create database test
*
ORA-00603: ORACLE server session terminated by fatal error SVRMGR> In the Oracle guide, this error number means that I have to redo the creation and delete all the files created by this command. That's what I did, and the same error occured again. I tried to give somme parameters to this command (group 1 ,etc...) but it did not work.

Could someone(s) help me.
