Install error and PL/SQL error

Question

Hello,
I'm new to Oracle. I installed Oracle8iR2 on Redhat Linux 6.2. During installation (more precisely during "Linking Oracle8i Enterprise Edition 8.1.6.1.0") I got this error :
Oracle: Error in invoking target ioracle of makefile /home/oracle/OraHome/rdbms/lib/ins-rdbms.
mk
ORA-124547: TNS: lost contact
ORA-03114: not connected to Oracle
I clicked "Ignore" and the installation continued without any other errors.
After the installation was finished I performed the initial configurations described in the manual as user root and user oracle. After that as user oracle I tried to start plsql like this :
Enter user-name : system
Enter password : *******(manager )
oraclebogdan: error in loading shared libraries libdsbtsh8.so : cannot opeb shared object
file : No such file or directory
ERROR : ORA -12547 : TNS : lost contact
Can you help me to fix the problems?
Thank you,
Bogdan Paduraru

I have a similar problem on Red Hat 5.2. In my case, the
failing command is:
Command: make -f ins_plsql.mk install <<!
The failing portion of that make file is:
`cat /raid/u01/app/oracle/8.0.5/lib/sysliblist`
It seems that file (sysliblist) contains the following:
-lnsl -lm
So, it appears to be looking for
/raid/u01/app/oracle/8.0.5/lib/libnsl.a and
/raid/u01/app/oracle/8.0.5/lib/libm.a
Neither of those files exist anywhere on my hard disk. This
appears to be the same problem originally reported, above.
So far, no clues.....
============================================
By the way, I had an earlier failure during a different make
where it was trying to compile something and include a header
file of "sys/types.h" and I fixed it by creating a "sys"
subdirectory in /usr/include that only had in it a symbolic
link to the regular "types.h" file.
