Solaris 8 Oracle 9i Installation

Hello;
I am hoping that one of you Guru's out there has run across this problem and can tell me exactly where I am messing up. I have a Sun Ultra 10 with 1GB of memory and 2GB of swap space. I am trying to install Oracle 9i on the system. All goes well with the installation until the Database Creation Assistant Starts to create the first database at that point it flashes up a message box that says "ora-27102 out of memory error. I have tried to manully create the database but I get the same error. Below are the entries I was told to put into my /etc/system file based on my systems memory and swap space:
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=536870912
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=200
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=600
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=200
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=3000
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=512
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=3000
set semsys:seminfo_semopm=200
set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767
set semsys:seminfo_semume=200
set semsys:seminfo_semmap=300
set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=800
These are the only entries. Have I missed one? Amy help would be greatly appreciated.

Respectfully;
Mark

Well i am not familiar with oracle installation but as if you are getting the message "ora**** running out of memory" then that means the /tmp is acquiring the space more than available so it would be good if you look and try to add exta swap space.
You can creat swap file on existing UFS.You can use the comand :-
/usr/sbin/swap -a pathname
and to verify it you can use:-
swap -l.
See if that helps

set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=10
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=2500
set semsys:seminfo_semopm=100
set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767

Try these parameters. The oracle documentation suggest this max parameter.
