Install RedHat Advanced Server
I have always installed the RedHat Advanced Server with the minimum installation, and then installed the necessary development environment and X11 components. This saves a lot of space (RHEL3 is installed at a minimum of 580 MB, RHEL4 is about 64 6 m, plus X11 and the necessary development environment, a little more than m ). how to manually install necessary development libraries and X11 environments?

Preparations before installation
1. Change the default value of sys. shmmax to 32 M. You can change it to M or M. Add sys. shmmax = To the end of/etc/sysctl. conf. <你的值> , Run sysctl-p to make it take effect.
2. Run ln-s/usr/lib/libstdc ++. so.6.0.3/usr/lib/libstdc ++. so.5 on RHEL4 Update1.
3. Install the libaio library on the third installation disk.

Install Oracle 10g Release 2
There will be no problems during the installation process. To save space, I have deleted some items. The $ ORACLE_HOME directory contains the jre and jdk directories. You can delete the contents under the jre, create a software connection. The command is as follows:

Rm-fr $ ORACLE_HOME/jre
Ln-s $ ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre $ ORACLE_HOME/jre/1.4.2

In addition, some large files under $ ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dcba/templates are deleted. The two files can have a total space of MB. there is no problem during installation, and there is no essential difference with the first version or Oracle 9i.
Create a database
You can use dbca to create and generate the database's corner book, exit dbca, and then run the generated corner book. There is no problem. I installed the operating system on a 3G VMware 5 Workstation machine, and Oracle generated a library, which is about MB of space.
