I can now say, that this error is permanent with 10g.
I did a second installation on a totally different machine (Windows XP)
which never got tainted by Oracle before and
during the 10gSetup I got these two errors above. An OS error occured, contact
your system administrator. (that was BS Fehler in german).

Possibly a resource bottleneck. Not enough virtual memory? It is a
1GB Memory, dual processor PIII machine in this case.
The other one failing (this morning) was a 512MB Athlon (FWIW).

Gotta watch now about the listener process if that fails too. Will come
back on this issue later.
