        With this command, you have build a new kernel with the new option (compilation of C programs...)

        Then you install, the new Oracle kernel and all of the object associted with it. You could restard Oracle

        and found the distributed option.

        When you install Oracle, you choose the options and then the installer build your oracle kernel.

        If you want a new option, you have to rebuild the kernel (see the two command above). This work

        is well prepared by oracle.
