Set Kernel Parameters.
Edit /etc/sysctl.conf file to add these kernel parameters.The file should reflect this value
fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
fs.file-max = 6815744
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 536870912
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
net.core.rmem_default=262144
net.core.rmem_max=4194304
net.core.wmem_default=262144
net.core.wmem_max=104858
Execute the following command to update the parameters
# /sbin/sysctl -p
Add the following lines to the /etc/security/limits.conf file:

Some additional packages are required for succesful installation of Oracle software. To check whether required packages are installed on your operating system use following command:
rpm -q binutils elfutils elfutils-libelf gcc gcc-c++ glibc glibc-common glibc-devel compat-libstdc++-33 cpp make compat-db sysstat libaio libaio-devel unixODBC unixODBC-devel| ksh sysstat make
Create new groups and users:
groupadd oinstall
groupadd dba
groupadd oper
groupadd asmadmin
useradd -g oinstall -G dba,oper,asmadmin oracle
passwd oracle
Create Directories in which Oracle software will be installed:
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1
chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
chmod -R 755 /u01
Login as oracle user and add the following lines at the end of .bash_profile file
# Oracle Settings ORACLE_HOSTNAME=localhost; export ORACLE_HOSTNAME ORACLE_UNQNAME=DB11G; export ORACLE_UNQNAME ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/db_1; export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID=orcl; export ORACLE_SID ORACLE_TERM=xterm; export ORACLE_TERM PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH; export PATH PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/JRE:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH if [ $USER = "oracle" ]; then if [ $SHELL = "/bin/ksh" ]; then ulimit -p 16384 ulimit -n 65536 else ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536 fi fi
Login as root and enter the following command:
xhost +
Download Oracle Database 11g R2 from Oracle and place the two file into the same directory:
unzip linux_11gR2_database_1of2.zip
unzip linux_11gR2_database_2of2.zip
You should now have a single directory called database.
Run the Oracle Universal Installer
cd database
./runInstaller
In Fedora 13 ,you will get link error:
Error invoking target 'agent nmhs' of make file
To fix it:
Edit $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/lib/ins_emagent.mk,
Search for the line $(MK_EMAGENT_NMECTL) and replace the line with $(MK_EMAGENT_NMECTL) -lnnz11
