Then I believe you would want to edit your /etc/sysctl.conf

I don't believe all the parameters you listed are available,
but for the ones you can change add them to /etc/sysctl.conf
like:

kernel.shmmax = <some value>
etc...

To load the values do:
sysctl -p

You can also change values from the command line like:
sysctl -w kernel.shmmax=<some value>

Read "man sysctl" for more info.  Hopefully Oracle has some
decent documentation on this as well.

Emmanuel and Rigler.. I am installing Oracle 9i and have to ensure that:
  
  1. the kernel be 2.0.33 or higher, and GNU C libraries be 2.0.6 or higher.

  2. Kernel parameters are set to a certain limit for Oracle.. parameters
are:
     SHMMAX, SHMMIN, SHMSEG, SEMMNS, SEMMNI, SEMMSL

Thanks

Some equivalent functions of /etc/system on Sun can be found in
/etc/sysctl.conf on Linux.  Most of this depends on what you
are attempting to accomplish.  There is also /etc/modules.conf
and various parameters you can pass at boottime.

Kernel settings??
You'll find a vmlinuz file in the /boot directory but this contains
the kernel binary image, not any settings.

Configuration options are in the /etc directory and the file names
are dependant on the section (networking, i18n, etc...).

What exactly are you trying to do?
