According to documentation, on Oracle 8.1.x, you're
supposed to be able to install Oracle in a
non-interactive way to avoid the OUI graphics. I've
try that because the server was secured ...
Well, after 2-3 tries of the damn thing not working
(or me not able to make it work), I just took a nice
walk to the server location and install Oracle in few
minutes ;-)
