Problem in Oracle 11G Installation on Linux Red Hat - Packages not found.

Operating System Linux Red Hat 9
Hardware Dell Power Edge 2900
Application Oracle 11g Database

I am getting a message " This is a pre requisite condition to test whether the package "libaio-devel-0.3.106" is available on the system. This message pops up at the bottom. The package list of unavailable packages include the following packages not found  during installation Oracle 11g database:


libaio-devel-0.3.106
sysstat-7.0.2
unixODBC-2.2.11

Please  provide me step by step to find the links plus instructions to install these packages. I tried google and yahoo, but in vain, I could not resolve the issue.

Hi,
   it means that you will have to install the rpms on your system. For that, you will need to mount your dvd, cd to the RPMS directory and install using rpm -Uvh <<rpm full file name>>
ex:
rpm -Uvh ibaio-devel-0.3.106.rpm
The file name may be different, you can get the full file name by issueing
ls -ltr | grep libaio-devel

I have installed 11g on Dell Poweredge 2650 (an old machine) and it all went fine.
HTH

In Windows operating system a DVD becomes acceptable instantly as soon as it is inserted in a drive. In Linux, a DVD needs to be mounted as a file system. Usually the mounting point for the DVD/CD drive should be defined in the system file "fstab." Note that Section 1 below is the one-time procedure. Once it is done, always proceed directly to Section 2.
.Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions.Things You'll Need:
•Superuser (root) password
Modifying fstab file
Step 1
Right-click on the Desktop and choose "open terminal" from the pop-up menu.

Step 2
Type "su" and press "Enter." Then type "<root password>" and press "Enter" to get administrator (root) privileges.

Step 3
Type "cd /mnt" and press "Enter."

Step 4
Type "mkdir cdrom" and press 'Enter' to create the directory "cdrom."

Step 5
Type "cd /etc" and press "Enter."

Step 6
Type "cp fstab fstab_original" and press "Enter" to make a copy of the file in case you would need to restore the original configuration.

Step 7
Type "nedit fstab" and press "Enter" to open the file "fstab" for editing.

Step 8
Press "End" followed by "Enter" to get to the end of the file.

Step 9
Type the following line at the end of the file "fstab."
"/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0"

Step 10
Click the menu "File >Save" to save the file. Then click "File >Exit" to exit "nedit."

Step 11
Type "exit" followed by "Enter" to exit the root shell.

Mounting DVD
Step 1
Insert a DVD into the DVD/CD drive.

Step 2
Type "mount /mnt/cdrom" and press "Enter" to mount DVD.

Step 3
To unmount DVD, close all files and folders (if any) that were used on DVD.

Step 4
Type "umount /mnt/cdrom" and press "Enter."

I also could not find the package libaio-devel-0.3.106 any where, neither on DVD nor any where after installing the red hat. If it is not there then how can I use rpm command on the missing packages.

Please see if you can find what you want on this page.
http://www.rpmseek.com/rpm-pl/libaio-devel.html?hl=com&cs=libaio-devel:PN:0:0:0:0:0
If not libaio-devel-0.3.106, i suggest you can try with libaio-devel-0.3.107.

Also would suggest to use the --aid option, if you are not already using when you are installing packages.
