First check that your system satisfied the requirement for installation,
Modify the /etc/sysctl.conf file to include the lines appropriate to your operating system:
kernel.shmmax = 536870912
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.shmall = 2097152
# semaphores: semmsl, semmns, semopm, semmni
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
fs.file-max = 65536
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
net.core.rmem_default=262144
net.core.rmem_max=262144
net.core.wmem_default=262144
net.core.wmem_max=262144
run the following command to "reload" kernel settings:
# /sbin/sysctl -p
the following (or later) packages must be installed:- glibc-2.3.4-2.9
- make-3.79
- binutils-2.15.92.0.2-13
- gcc-3.4.3-22.1
- libaio-0.3.96
- glibc-common-2.3.4-2.9
- setarch-1.6-1
- pdksh-5.2.14-30
- openmotif21-2.1.30-11
- sysstat-5.0.5-1
- gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-44.1
- libstdc++-3.4.3-22.1
- libstdc++devel-3.4.3-22.1
- compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2
- compat-db-4.1.25-9
- control-center-2.8.0-12
- xscreensaver-4.18-5.rhel4.2
# rpm -q package-name
if something is missing then install it:# rpm -Uvh package-name
Now you had to create groups, user and directory structure for installation:# groupadd oinstall
# groupadd dba
# groupadd oper
# useradd -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/
# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
log in as oracle user, download the installation source, unpack, change your working directory to source and run runInstaller.sh:# groupadd dba
# groupadd oper
# useradd -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/
# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
# ./runInstaller.sh
Select the installation with new database and click on Next...
... set the path where you want to install and click on Next ...
... set the path for oraInventory and an translational group ...
... the system now check for requirements,
