RE: Oracle 8i installation problem on Pentium 4

I had this problem while installing on my Pentium 4 machine. I raised a tar for this and as per their instructions, I could install 817 on Pentium. I quoting the contents of the tar for your reference. If you have any problems, please contact me directly.

Oracle Tar instructions:

Please review bug 1507768 and doc id 131299.1 out on metalink, you can view them by doing
an 'advanced' search
This is a known issue with the OUI and Intel pentium 4.

The workaround is listed in note 131299.1

If you have problems with this you can follow the simplied instructions below..

Problem: Oracle Universal Installer will not run on Intel Pentium Machines

Solution:
1. Create a temporary directory on your server. 2. Copy the contents of the Oracle Server CD to the temporary directory created in step 1.
3. Search the directory structure created in step 1 for the existence of the filename symcjit.dll.
4. Rename each copy of the symcjit.dll to symcjit.old. 5. Run the setup.exe from the \install\win32 directory and install Oracle 8.1.x.

Hi, everyone:

I had problem installing Oracle 8.1.7.0 on my Petium 4 machine running Windows
Me.

I changed the scripts to use -nojit option, however, when I was installing, only
Oracle Cllients was installed. Any idea?

TIA Matt
