machine:

celeron 450Mhz, 256M of ram, 512M of swap.

it installed, yea.

Here are the problems:

do not even attempt to run the gui tools(dbca, netasst) with the install, it will bomb.
none of the binaries will link, just click ignore for all of the errors, we will deal with them later.
after you've got the binaries installed: $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh will need edited. follow instructions for installing 8.1.7 on rh 7.1. I've got the link book marked and for those of you w/o metalink let me know and i can paste the important parts. :)
run genclntsh according to the instructions.
then attempt relink all, mine errored out, i did a relink of each component, hint: if you type relink by itself it will show you the options.
run dbca to build skeleton scripts to build a database.

thats as far as i got at 3AM when i went to bed(some 3.5 hours ago),

building the database tonite,

I'll keep everyone posted.

if this all works, i'll be attempting on my 192M laptop :)
