RE: SOS : Oracle On linux Segmenation fault, core dumped

["Atul Chitnis" <achitnis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Oracle for Linux is not compatible with glibc 2.1 that ships with RHL6.0.
This is the same problem as with StarOffice 5.0 for Linux - bad boys used
undocumented calls that went away in glibc 2.1

There is a work around - do not cause it to create databases during install,
and relink Oracle before use. The process is described on Oracle's support
pages.
