PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

for xclock, you need to install xorg-x11-apps
# yum install xorg-x11-apps
# which xclock
/usr/bin/xclock

There is also a 'silent' install option that doesn't require an Xwindows server and client.

The online docs talk about how to do them.

Yesterday I have done the Installation of Oracle 11g r2 on RHEL 5.5. I was a remote machine and I was accessing it from putty so What I have done. Before running the installer, I have installed the VNC SERVER on my linux box and set the password with vncpasswd command and then started vnc server.

Then I have connected that box over the vnc and executed the installer. It worked and I have installed the Oracle 11G without any challenge.
