I'm stuck in the Oracle installer... here's how I got that far:

 * install jdk-1.1.8
 * make /bin/sh point to /emul/linux/bin/bash (don't forget to reset
   before next reboot! :-)
 * Create user 'oracle', do the following as user 'oracle'
 * copy CD to /home/oracle/CD
 * Replace /home/oracle/CD/stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.1.8/1/DataFiles/Expanded/linux/bin/jre
   with the following script:

        #!/bin/sh
        PATH=/usr/pkg/java/bin:$PATH
        export PATH
        exec /usr/pkg/java/bin/jre "$@"

 * cd /home/oracle/CD/install/linux                                       
 * ./runInstaller 
 * Welcome, Click "Next"
 * File Locations: defaults look sane, click "Next"
 * See a progress bar appear, and abort at ~46% with an error message of  
   "There was a problem in accessing the staging area. 
    Please make sure the specified values for 'Source' and 
    'Destination' are valid.

I have NFC where this comes from, and reading ktrace output back and forth
doesn't help either. I made sure there is no "home" and "tmp" dirs under
/emul/linux to not confuse the installer, but that's not the solution
either.

Help!
