20.7. Oracle 10g R1 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 (x86)
On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 x86 you may have to install the following RPMs and dependencies to
meet the software requirements:
rpm -Uvh glibc-2.2.4-32.11.i686.rpm \
glibc-common-2.2.4-32.11.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh gcc-2.96-108.1.i386.rpm \
binutils-2.11.90.0.8-12.i386.rpm \
cpp-2.96-108.1.i386.rpm \
glibc-devel-2.2.4-32.11.i386.rpm \
kernel-headers-2.4.9-e.3.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh openmotif-2.1.30-11.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh redhat-release-as-2.1AS-4.noarch.rpm
You may have to upgrade glibc in order to pass Oracle's "Product-specific Prerequisite" checks.
Oracle's recommended glibc version is 2.2.4.31.7 or higher.
There is no setarch RPM for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1.
Also, it is important to install a newer kernel version for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1. Do not use a
kernel older than 2.4.9-e.25. To check the kernel version run uname -r.
20.8. Verifying and Updating the redhat-release File
Verify that the redhat-release RPM is installed on your Red Hat system:
rpm -q redhat-release
This RPM is important for Red Hat Enterprise Linux since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4 and 5 are
Linux releases supported by Oracle. Without this RPM, Oracle 10g OUI will not be able to recognize
