I don't use Linux and those package names mean nothing to me. However, as Oracle software is to be downloaded from OTN Download section, perhaps you'll find them there?

These packages should be on the original install medium. Usually under the RPMS directory. If you have multiple ISO's or DVD's you installed from, you may have to browse several before you find them.

Login into RHEL 5, you should be able to find these packages by going to Applications - Add/Remove Software. click the List tab, that is how I installed them. You will be asked for the root password if you are not already login as such.

I had to use the installation cds to find the packages. Add remove did not have them listed. There are some conflicting information on the internet regarding which packages are requiered for rhel 5, so I installed everything. Hopefully it is not a problem.

Your solution should be OK, but what you did was to install a lot of stuff you don't need, or will ever use. Installing a bunch of software you aren't going to run or maintain could possibly open up your system to security vulnerabilities that you wouldn't have otherwise. If this is a test system you are learning on, it's probably no big deal. If this is going to be a production system, I would highly suggest you de-install packages you won't use. I am not sure what you use to do Linux package management, but all you should have had to do is 'rpm -Ivh <package_name>', or the equivalent for your distribution. Once you found them on the cd's, you should have just been able to cd to the directory containing them, and install them one by one with the 'rpm' command. Good luck!
