I installed oracle 10g - not without problems.

During installation, I was requested to create a startupscript which is run in runlevels 2,3,4 (and might fail).
It's run for shutdown in runlevels 6, 0 (and might fail too).

While rebooting, the machine didn't went down normally, but hang after printing 'Sending all processes the kill signal."

I made a hard-reset, and it didn't went up normally, but prompted soon for a runlevel.
Nothing worked, except 'S' - Single-usermode.
But according to fstab, the root-filesystem is mounted 'ro' on errors, and I couldn't change anything.

I finally booted from a cd, mounted hda5, my rootpartition in rw-mode successfully, and changed the startupscripts to start only in runlevel 4.

A new start prompted again very early for a runlevel. Runlevel 3 didn't work.

I had to chreate a sysctl.conf during oracle-installation, and start it with 'sysctl -p', which I did, and assume I have to do it too for ordinary running oracle, but before comming this far, booting fails.

Any suggestion?

error found!

During install, inittab was truncated to zero size.

(And two zero-size files, /etc/inittab.cssd and ~.no_cssd where created, but therefore I better move myself to the ora10g forum...)
