Is there a way to dowload the oracle 23ai FREE executables not in .rpm format? For RH Rel 9?
If not how to extract the .rpm files with cpio into a stage directory called /stage?
oracle-database-preinstall-23ai-1.0-2.el9.x86_64.rpm
oracle-database-free-23ai-1.0-1.el9.x86_64.rpm
--need to do a silent install into a different file system not /opt/oracle. Need to edit this /etc/
From manual:

For Oracle Linux 9
#!/bin/bash
yum -y install /downloads/oracle-database-free-23ai-1.0-1.el9.x86_64.rpm > /free_logs/FREEsilentinstall.log 2>&1
/etc/init.d/oracle-free-23ai configure >> /free_logs/FREEsilentinstall.log 2>&1
To install Oracle 23ai without using RPM files, you need to download the Oracle Database 23ai software directly from the Oracle
website and manually extract and configure the installation files, essentially performing a "bare metal" installation; this process involves creating necessary
directories, setting environment variables, and running the installation scripts provided in the
downloaded package, requiring a deeper understanding of the installation process compared to using RPMs.
