Right now the only thing here is documentation about Oracle 8.1.7 on Red Hat 7.1
I present this information for the benefit of the Linux community - but you should use it at your own peril! This has worked for me in all the installs I have tried, but I have not tested it exhaustively and can not guarantee success or its application in general.
It's a bit old now - but may still be useful for some so I'll leave it here.
