RE: 9iRel2 install on RHEL ES4

Agreed.  And in cases where the Oracle Installer is itself installed
using ignoreSysPrereqs, I'll instead modify $OUI_HOME/oraparams.ini to
add the "offending" OS, just in case some if the SysPrereqs should not
be met in the future.
 
My $.02,
Rich

        This changing of /etc/redhat-release is not a very good idea.
This file is used by up2date and spoofing it to install software is
IMHO, not a very good idea.  Better to use the -ignoreSysPrereqs when
invoking runInstaller.
