Need help to start an installation of Oracle 9i on AIX 5.1 on a Power PC

554245Jan 3 2007 — edited Jan 4 2007

Hi,
I am new to Oracle and would appreciate some help to get me started with an installation of Oracle 9i on a Power PC running AIX 5L for Power version 5.1.

The system has 4 processors, 512MB RAM, several SCSI disks, but NO video card. The console is an old IBM 3151 terminal connected to one of the serial ports.

From what I understand, I need a GUI screen to enable me to run the Oracle installer. Does this mean I need to run X Server on a PC that connects to the Power PC? Can anyone suggest some suitable, and preferably free software to let me do this? Also, any links to relevant documents or other assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Peter Ferdinand.
