Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: 9iRel2 install on RHEL ES4
This changing of /etc/redhat-release is not a very good idea. This file is used by up2date and spoofing it to install software is IMHO, not a very good idea. Better to use the -ignoreSysPrereqs when invoking runInstaller.

Subject: Re: 9iRel2 install on RHEL ES4
Have a look at my article on installing 10g on Linux on the OTN Web site:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/smiley_10gdb_install.html
This particular problem is addressed in the article:
For RHEL4 Only: The Oracle Universal Installer will check the operating system release to verify that it is a supported release. As of Oracle Database 10g 10.1.0.3, the installer does not recognize RHEL4 as a supported release. The workaround is to follow the steps below prior to running runInstaller.
cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/redhat-release.orig cat > /etc/redhat-release << EOF Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon)EOF

Is there a way to work around this:
