Aloha. I have been working w/Oracle & Unix for >14 years. I started with Oracle 9i DBA certification courses this year & have just installed Fedora on an old PC. I am now trying to install 9i. As sys. admin. newbie I guess I need a little hand holding.

Would you please either give me some instructions or let me know where I can find the necessary info?

How do I change the Oracle installation to recoginize my current java version, 1.5.0? I noticed in Disk1/runInstaller there is this:

Code:
# The environment variable $JAVA_HOME cannot be set during the installation
unset JAVA_HOME
I assume if I comment that line out in Disk1/runInstaller, I probably would break the installalation.

Alternately, how does one go about downgrading glibc and recompiling the kernel? I do not have the source code --- I installed Fedora from a 2-cd set I got from the "Official Fedora Companion" book from redhat press.

Mahalo (thanks)!
