I am attempting to install 9ir2 on a Red Hat 7.2 Linux box. Part way through the first attempt I decided to changed the Oracle home value. I stopped the install, deleted the previous Oracle home directory tree, built the new directory and restarted the install.

Oracle has stored the value of the old Oracle home somewhere. The install is now crashing because the old Oracle home does not exist. Any idea where it is store and who owns the file? I have already deleted the install files in /tmp. The .bash_profile has the correct Oracle home.
