Failed to install Oracle Service Registry

Question

I tried to install OSR 10.1.3.1 before deploying AIA, however, the installation is not going on smoothly...
* I am doing this through VMWAre environment (RHEL5, SOA Suite 10.1.3.3, Oracle DB 10.2.0.2)
I have encountered several issues:
1) the installation screen are not properly formatted, and most of the information is actually missing...
2) at the beginning of the installation, i received a message: null, Installation Failed.
besides that, I would like to ask which ORACLE_HOME should we point to? the one for database or SOA?
Could anyone help me on these issues?
Thanks
