oracle 9.2.0.4 client on freebsd 5.3

[eodyna]

hi there,

i followed this guide.

http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200402/oracle.html

i ran 
/compat/linux/bin/bash \
        /data01oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0/root.sh
which is that scripty thing :)

and i also created an arch directory prior tothe
install. but that doesn't seam fix this problem

bash-2.05b$ pwd
/compat/linux/bin
bash-2.05b$ ls -lsa | more
   2 -rwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel       35 Nov 18 14:19
arch

bash-2.05b$ more arch
#!/compat/linux/bin/bash
echo i686


any other ideas?


ps: im not on the list, so if you can include me in on
the cc that would be great.

ta.
