package versions or higher:
binutils-2.15.92.0.2-10.EL4
compat-db-4.1.25-9
control-center-2.8.0-12
gcc-3.4.3-9.EL4
gcc-c++-3.4.3-9.EL4
glibc-2.3.4-2
glibc-common-2.3.4-2

Note
Install the libaio-0.3.96 RPM or a newer version, otherwise the OUI prerequisite
check will fail.
To check if you are running the x86-64 kernel on a x86-64 platform, run:
# uname -mi
x86_64 x86_64
To check the RPMs, run:
rpm -q --qf '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}
binutils compat-db control-center gcc gcc-c++ glibc glibc-common \
gnome-libs libstdc++ libstdc++-devel make pdksh sysstat xscreensaver \
libaio
It is important to have these x86-64 RPMs installed. The above command will list the architecture of
each binary package. You will see that some RPMs are installed twice when you run this command
(x86 RPM and x86-64 RPM). You need to ensure that all required x86-64 RPMs listed here are
installed.
