Having issues installing Oracle 11gR2 on RHEL

I'm working on a project where I'm installing Oracle 11gR2 on RHEL v5.8. There are a ton of packages that have to be installed in advance of installing Oracle. I don't have RH Satellite up and running yet and it is very time consuming to install packages by hand and meeting dependencies, especially unixODBC64-devel-2.2.14-3.el15.x86-64. I'm having major issues with this one.

I though there would be an easier way and have found repositories from Oracle that will install the pacakges as long as I have /etc/yum.d pointed to the repository, like the one below: https://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el5.repo

My concern is that this sounds like this is for Oracle for Linux and will replace our stock kernel from Redhat.

Has anyone had any experiencing in installing Oracle on Linux or pulling packages down from Oracle to install on various Linux distros?

    BTW, I solved this.

    For some reason, I hit a brick wall and was trying to pull down the packages that I needed from the install .iso.

    I then went to the RH website and grab what packages I needed from there, which were more current and that solved the issue.
