We recently acquired a 280R sun sparc box running Solaris 8. Now we wanna
install Oracle 8.1.7 on it.

According to the Oracle 8i/installation guide, patches for JRE 1.1.8_10 have
to be installed on Solaris operating system. But the tables only list those
for 6 and 7 but not for 8 at all.

For those who have installed oracle 8.1.7 on Solaris 8, what patches do you
have to apply? Thanks in advance.

Because 8.1.7 comes with its own JRE as part of the installation.

I remember it is documented ... not in the installation guide .... but
in the Release Notes.
