Jonathan,
I saw almost exactly the same thing with 512MB , 512MB swap, Suse Linux 7.1
also..
Some stuff that springs to mind:
Did you dynamically change the SHMMAX setting before the install and if so, did
you make the same change once the machine had rebooted?
When you're prompted for the JDK location don't you specify the location of the
Blackdown JDK files?
This is from memory with no way to check so excuse any mistakes =)
Regards,
Mike

| Subject: Oracle9i on Suse Linux |
>--------------------------------------------------------------------|
I installed Oracle9i on Suse Linux 7.1 (384MB RAM, 400MB
swap), and ran into a bit of a snag. The install ran fine
until the end when the database creation assistant attempted
to start the seed database. At that point I received an
"ORA-03113: End of File on Communication Channel" error, and
my Linux box froze up. Having Linux freeze up is a pretty
rare event in itself, but I'm really wondering what caused
the error. After rebooting, I was able to run the database
creation assistant, create another database, and start that
one. I then tried to manually start the seed database, and
received the same ORA-03113 error. Could this somehow be
related to memory? Was it too much to have the installer and
the creation assistant running at the same time?
A couple of other oddities I noticed:
During the install, I was asked to specify a location for
a JDK. I dutifully created a directory and typed in its
path, but the installer never actually put any files into
it. Why did it ask me for a directory that it wasn't going
to use?
When I run the oraenv script, it doesn't create an
ORACLE_HOME environment variable. Instead of adding
$ORACLE_HOME/bin to my path, it adds the full path to the
bin directory. Is $ORACLE_HOME going away?
Best regards,
Jonathan Gennick
