"compatibility" or "compatible" is not a mandatory init.ora parameter.
I would think that only the first three are required.

This is from John Hibbard, a great Oracle Education instructor.
But why not try for yourself? Save off your init.ora, then create a new
init.ora with just the above parameters. If Oracle comes up, then remove
parameters. If there is another parameter, Oracle will tell you.
