Trust me Cher, you'll sleep much better at night if you,

1. Install the Oracle software from the cd-rom to the new machine and,
2. Create the instance and services using instance manager and,
3. Create the directories for datafiles, control files, log files, etc. and,
4. Copy and modify the tnsnames & listener.ora files and,
5. Rebuild the database from a full export on tape.
