I am trying to install 8i 8.1.7 on redhat linux 9. when I start the installer I initially got the first error below. I did export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1. Now the installation starts and I get

---FIRST ERROR---
[oracle@localhost Disk1]$ ./runInstaller

---CURRENT ERROR---
[oracle@localhost Disk1]$ ./runInstaller

and then get back to the $prompt after some time and the welcome screen never comes up.
