Help installing Oracle 9i

["Stan Brown" <stanb@awod.com>]

I have installed Oracle 9i on a Progeny machine. The machine has a 2.4.16
kernel, and the libc is libc6          2.2.1-1 , binutils is
2.10.0.27-0.cv. Now I'm trying to install it on a woody machine, witha
2.4.17 kernel. Libc is libc6          2.2.4-7, and binutils 2.11.92.0.12.3.

The Oracle installer simply core dumps. A kind soul sufested downgrading
binutils to the potato version and trying. This leaves me with several
questiosn.

1. Since the installer won;t run at all, isn't it likely that I also need
to downgrade libc?

2. How can I safely downgrade packages like this?

3. Has anyone sucessfully installed 9i on a woody machine?

Any inpit, whatsover would eb helpful.
