Hi I am trying to install Oracle 9i on Fedora core 4. If I try installing it as root then it errors out saying "cannot install as root". When I try installing as a user I get the following error: [neshat@localhost Disk1]$ Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /tmp/OraInstall2005-11-30_10-29-31PM/jre/bin/java.

Please suggest as what can be the reason and how I can complete the installation.
