runtime linker errors
Hey guys

I have a solaris 10 OS, with a zone configured. In that zone, I am trying to install an Oracle Client. However, when I run the oracle installer, I get the following error:

Code:
ld.so.1: java: fatal: libexpat.so.0: open failed: No such file or directory
ld.so.1: java: fatal: libfreetype.so.6: open failed: No such file or directory
ld.so.1: java: fatal: libexpat.so.0: open failed: No such file or directory
ld.so.1: java: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/lib/64/libfontconfig.so: symbol XML_ParserCreate: referenced symbol not found

I have googled and googled for hours. It looks like the issue is that the runtime linker ld expects libexpat.so.0 and libfreetype.so.6 to be somewhere else, but I have no idea about the last one, libfontconfig.so. So i tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH which didn't work. I then tried adding the path to these libraries using crle, but that didn't work either. Finally, I tried adding a link to the libraries, in where ld was looking for them. First, from within the zone:
Code:
-bash-3.00# ln -s /usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.0 /usr/lib
ln: cannot create /usr/lib/libexpat.so.0: Read-only file system

and again from the global zone:
Code:
-bash-3.00# cd /export/home/zonename/root/
-bash-3.00# ln -s usr/local/lib/libexpat.so.0 usr/lib
ln: cannot create usr/lib/libexpat.so.0: Read-only file system

So... can anyone help me:
- Change the zone's /lib to read/write
- add the library to the crle / library path and have it work
- Tell me if I'm on the right track at least (ie, that it is a problem with where ld is looking)
- anything else to help fix it.

On a side note, the Oracle Client I'm trying to install is 11g. I previously tried 10g and had that work beautifully. Unfortunately, 10g is actually incompatible with the next thing i'll be putting in the zone.

Cheers, I'd appreciate any help you can offer

install-solaris(1M)                                                                                                            install-solaris(1M)

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris  invokes  the  Solaris  Install  program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

           Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.

       install-solaris  exists  only  on  the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the  for more
       details.

       install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the
       installation media. Refer to the  for disk space requirements.

       Refer to the  for more information on the various menus and selections.
