Oracle Professional Developer, Ver. 6.0.33 for MS-DOS

I am trying to set this fossil in DOS 6.22, which runs on Microsoft Virtual PC 2007. I hope that some of you, an Oracle veteran, have some kind of recollection of the order in which to load these diskettes, since I don't have documentation for 6.0.33.

A friend emailed me the following images on a 720K floppy disk:

INSTALLE.IMG
RDBMS1.IMG
RDBMS2.IMG
RDBMS3.IMG
RSF.IMG
SQLLDR1.IMG
SQLLDR2.IMG
UTIL1.IMG
UTIL2.IMG
UTIL3.IMG

Inside the virtual PC, I capture the floppy disk image, one at a time, to drive A: VPC floppy emulation supports FAT12, so the supported floppy disk formats can be: 720K or 1.44MB. If anyone has documentation for this old version, I would really appreciate a copy!

Thanks.

6.0.33 on DOS ??? I think you're lucky. In those days, most Oracle installations were, in a sense, Unix, or VAX.

I see that you are cross-hosted on several other sites, but you must post to specialized Oracle forums. I recommend that you try the OraFAQ website and Oracle-L listserver , as many old timers hang around both of them.

In the meantime, if I were a gambler, I would suggest that the order you show there is most likely the correct order. It would be logical to start with the installation, and then with the main database. After that, the order of Utilities, the necessary support files, and the SQL loader is a little less obvious, but perhaps RSF, Utils, and then SQLLDR? Have you tried them? Maybe every disc ends saying what you want?
