Does the machine have sufficient memory and swap space? The Java
installation tool in 8i is unfortunately a *real* resource hog.

You must change SHMMAX(?) in kernel sources, recompile kernel, set some
kernel parameters (shared memory, ...). All in instruction from Oracle.

good-luck

Thanks,
but I do it before starting installation procedure for Oracle. Creted
rc.config and add lines:
cd /proc/sys/kernel
echo 250 32000 100 128 > sem
echo 4294967295 > shmax
echo 4096 > shmin

and add it into the /etc/rc

You need tabs in the one entry:
echo -e "250\t32000\t100\t128" > sem
