Error installing Oracle 9i on Fedora Core 4

[Neshat Afroz]

Hi

I am trying to install Oracle 9i on Fedora core 4. If I try installing it as
root then it errors out saying "cannot install as root". When I try
installing as a user I get the following error:

[neshat@localhost Disk1]$ Initializing Java Virtual Machine from
/tmp/OraInstall2005-11-30_10-29-31PM/jre/bin/java. Please wait...
/tmp/OraInstall2005-11-30_10-29-31PM/jre/bin/i386/native_threads/java: error
while loading shared libraries:
/tmp/OraInstall2005-11-30_10-29-31PM/jre/lib/i386/native_threads/libhpi.so:
cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied

and then does not do anything. Please suggest as what can be the reason and
how I can complete the installation.

Thanks
Neshat

9i - http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i.shtml

Go with 10g man.

you have to install as user: oracle   Also you will need certain variables 
set such as $ORACLE_HOME

hope it helps..
