Performing the installation
Insert CD 1 of 3 from the set
of CD-ROMs titled
Oracle9i
Database
(64-bit)
Release
2 (9.2.0.1.0) for Sun SPARC Solaris
CD 1
of 3 (the other two are 2 of 3 and 3 of 3)
and refer to the table below
for actions to take in each window displayed by the Oracle Universal
Installer. Minimize the File Manager window after the CD-ROM is mounted
(Solaris Volume Manager mounts the CD-ROM for you). As the UNIX user oracle9,
start the installation by typing /cdrom/disk1/runInstaller at a UNIX prompt. Do not navigate to /cdrom
or /cdrom/disk1 or you will run into problems ejecting the CD-ROM
from this shell window. Do not double click the runInstaller icon in the File
Manager window - use the UNIX command line.
You may encounter other
windows during the installation process for a variety of reasons (improper
system setup, lack of file permissions, non-existent paths, etc.). The OUI
windows are fairly self-explanatory as to what needs to be done to correct the
problem.
In the windows that appear
below, take the action(s) indicated.
