well, Verify System Requirements and ensure that the system requirements in the installation documentation have been met.
Note: You can complete a Minimal Oracle8i Enterprise Edition installation on a 64MB machine, but you cannot run Oracle Universal Installer and the database assistants during the same installation session. Later versions of Oracle requires a minimum of 512MB to avoid Oracle installation problems.
To run the assistants on a machine with less than 96MB of RAM, complete a Minimal installation, then when asked if you want to create a database, answer No.
Similarly, if asked if you want to migrate an existing database, choose No. After installation is completed and Oracle Universal Installer exits, run the assistant(s).
Oracle Options (interMedia, Spatial, etc.) are not installed during a Minimal installation. If you want to install any of the options, do so after completing a Minimal installation.
Before installing an Oracle8i server ensure that any existing Net8 or SQL*Net listeners on the same computer are stopped.
An existing listener may prevent the Net8 8.1 listener from starting during the Oracle8i install due to listener endpoint conflicts with an existing listener.
You must have Administrative privileges to install. Before beginning installation, ensure that you are logged on as a user with Administrative privileges.
Oracle installation problems: Out of memory problem: An out-of-memory problem has been noticed on minimal systems (64MB; 512MB of RAM is recommended) when running the Oracle Database Migration Assistant and Oracle Database Configuration Assistant.
