Oracle 11g Installation Gotcha

When I was installing 11g today from the download I continued to get "Permission Denied" when trying to execute runInstaller.

I fixed it by changing the permissions on 3 files:

chmod u+x /mount_point/database/runInstaller
chmod u+x /mount_point/database/install/.oui
chmod u+x /mount_point/database/install/unzip
