oracle8i installation problem

[Holmes Wong]

Hi,
I installed oracle8i on redhat 6.1. Somehow, database instances could not be installed properly without any reason. When I tried to run
the server, it gave me this error: ORA -00600:internal error code, arguments: [3668], [1], [2], etc. I am wondering how I can fix this,
or I just need to reinstall the whole thing?
Thanks.

It might be related to i/o or address space is getting corrupted . There are some known issues with 8i installation on linux. Did you try to contact Oracle?

Thanks for reply.
I did not contact them, but I was told by some people who had the same problem that people in Oracle would tell you this is becuz of your own hardware problem. You mentioned this problem is
with Oracle8i, so it is not with oracle9i or other newer versions?
