 Modify PATH and rerun the installation if it doesn't.

Well, that got me through another hurdle, and on to the next.

Rather than ask you to go out of your way to RTFM for me again, could you 
tell me how you are finding the info?  I did set up an account with Oracle 
to download it in the first place, but I'm not finding how to find answers 
to my install problems.
