The stuff dealing with Linux compatibility in the Oracle installation
instructions has me
confused.  ftp://ftp.oracle.com/pub/www/otn/linux/README mentions that 5
RPMS must be installed first.  I downloaded them and tried to install
them as in:

cosmo# /compat/linux/bin/rpm -i --ignoreos --root /compat/linux --dbpath
/var/lib/rpm compat-binutils-5.2-2.9.1.0.23.1.i386.rpm
failed to open /etc/mtab: No such file or directory  

i believe i have the proper Linux compatibility stuff:

cosmo# pkg_info | grep -i linux
linux_base-6.1      The base set of packages needed in Linux mode
linux_devtools-6.1  Packages needed for doing development in Linux mode 

I run 4.0-Release.  I'm sure I'm missing something basic but I don't know
enough linux to figure out what.  Can someone help?
