>From the release notes:
The Oracle installation program (versions 8.1.7, 8.1.6, and possibly others)
does not work properly with glibc 2.2 and above. The problem is that it is
linking object files compiled against different glibc (binary compatibility
is ensured only for linked executables and shared libraries through symbol
versioning). You may work around this by installing the Red Hat Linux 6.2
compatibility packages (compat-egcs, compat-glibc and compat-libs) and
issuing the following commands before running the Oracle installer:
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
. /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/bin/i386-glibc21-linux-env.sh
The second line exports environment variables which will cause gcc and ld to
look for glibc 2.1.3 compatibility headers and libraries.
No I haven't tried it yet.
