I'm scripting a silent install of Oracle, so we can avoid the lengthy
click-fest that it is. However, I've bumped into a small issue...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# su - oracle -c
"/home/oracle/database/runInstaller -silent -responseFile
/home/oracle/database/recorded.rsp"

Loading Product Information
It looks like the installer is exiting back to the shell and then
launching new processes, so terminating the line with && isn't helping
me. I may use sleep as a kludge to get around this, but am wondering if
there's a neater answer that will be dependant upon actual completion
and not just waiting around for some arbitrary period of time, which may
turn out to be too long (or not long enough) in the future.
