Hi Rajesh,

It would be more helpful if you could tell me what exactly your problem
is.

However here are some pointers: 

Firstly you need JRE 1.1.6 from www.blackdown.org (please note: no other
JRE version: exactly 1.1.6 from blackdown - nothing else will work)

Follow the documentation carefully. There are steps you need to do as
root: i.e. make two new groups and at least one new user. Then you need
to do stuff as the new user who incidentally is none other than the
future dba for your installation. Make sure you follow the instructions
carefully word for word. (I think you can safely ignore the kernel
options they recommend though - for the record I am using kernel 2.2.2)

Finally from Xwindows run 'runInstaller' which is located at the top of
your cdrom tree. Please note: you have to run it from Xwindows as it
will start a java based GUI installer which needs Xwindows.

Hope that helps, as I said I can help you more if you are a *little*
more descriptive.

Meanwhile anyone out there who can help me with *my* problem?
