OS Version issue: while installing AS10g in Enterprise linux.

AS10g can't be installed on Oracle provided Enterprise Linux (October Update 4).

Though the Enterprise linux is very much similar to RedHat Linux, the AS10g will not allow you to install it on Oracle provided Enterprise linux.

How to by-pass ?

Make a copy of /etc/issue and /etc/redhat-release files.
Open oraparm.ini file inside as10g-cd1/install directory.
copy any one of the linux versions listed under "[Certified Versions]" tag.
Update the entries inside /etc/issue and /etc/redhat-release with the linux versions you copied from oraparam.ini file.
Example:
Original Entry in /etc/issue file:
Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (October Update 4)
Updated Entry:
redhat-Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4

Now continue the installation.
This can be done for any issue that shows version problem.
