> The problem seems to be the java installation tool ("Universal
Installer").
> I`ve tried a number of different jdk/jre versions, both Linux and native
> FBSD (the first seems to do better). It does run, you can choose file
> locations, SID, group ids and so on. But when the actual installation
> should take place, java dumps core with dust, explosions and a bulk load

combinations:
> Ora 8i 8.5.0 + FBSD jdk118    complete failure
> Ora 8i 8.5.0 + Linux jdk117   works better
> Ora 8i 8.5.0 + Linux jdk116v5 (jdk version recommended by Oracle)
> Ora 8i 8.5.0.2 + Linux jdk116v5 (which is rumored to work with Linux
itself)

fool" ;-)
