Hi, All my 64 bit machines with Oracle on are AMD, Im afraid I have no experience of POWER 5 servers. Personally I would not use the nodeps arg to RPM on a production machine. I take it that you have tried to install the RPM's with rpm -Uvh instead of -ivh too ? Also I would suggest trying to install the required packages using up2date. I don't know if either of those methods will work. We had a situation here a couple of weeks ago where one of our junior admins made a mess of RPM on a server by using nodeps etc with important library packages, and they ended up having to reinstall !
