you proceed with Oracle installation. rootpre.sh can be found at the top level

Answer 'y' if root has run 'rootpre.sh' so you can proceed with Oracle

installation.

Answer 'n' to abort installation and then ask root to run 'rootpre.sh'.

Has 'rootpre.sh' been run by root? [y/n] (n)

Was pushing the button too fast.. sorry for confusion..

Check if

- ora<SID> has JAVA_HOME set

- ora<SID> contains $JAVA_HOME/bin in PATH

The Oracle installer uses it´s own Java runtime, not the one you installed.

And yes, as the script (for me without misunderstanding) says, is, that the script must be run as root.

What is your problem? This looks all good to me
