This is covered in the installation documentation - I think its in the post-install steps. The installation comes with an example init script for starting/stopping oracle. All you need to do is fix up this script to match with your installation, put it in the same directory as all your other init scripts and then make the necessary symbolic links from the various run level directories to this script so that it is started or stopped, depending on which run levels are being entered.
