RE: newbie sqlplus ?Another question,

I setup my computer like this:

$ORACLE_BASE=/db/oracle
$ORACHE_HOME=/db/oracle/ora817/817home

My oracle directories like this:

/db/oracle/ora817/817db1   --files for db1
/db/oracle/ora817/817db2  --files for db2
/db/oracle/ora817/817db3  --files for db3

During the installation, i get a prompt asking me for db file installation, would this be /db/oracle/ora817/817db1 ? if this was my 1st db being installed?

  Well, since I already went through the deinstall option and also deleted the $oracle_home, is there something else I can do? I'm trying to reinstall the db but i'm getting a prompt asking me if I want to upgrade or migrate the old db at /db/oracle/... (strange since i had deleted that folder). Can i just ignore this option and proceed w/ the install w/o the install going haywire? Can I still delete the old db w/ dbassist after the install?

    Launch $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbassist and delete any database you have created.

    Then launch the installer from your oracle cd and select deinstall option to deinstall the software.

    I'm just going to reinstall Oracle8i and start from scratch. Any docs out     there on uninstalling Oracle8i? The only ones I have found are on Windows     and they're all saying how Oracle does not completely uninstall. Is this     true for Oracle on Solaris? I ran the uninstaller and removed everything     but I noticed the oracle home was still there. I ended up deleting it. Is     there anything else I need to do?
