I do not have the above file

/var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc file

# more /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc
/var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc: No such file or directory

Have you installed Oracle already? That file only exists AFTER an Oracle product has been installed.

Ohhh... Ok.. I havent installed Oracle

I am following the document...

As per the documents Preinstallation Tasks

I have linked the following files :-

# cd /usr/lib
# ln -s libX11.3 libX11.sl
# ln -s libXIE.2 libXIE.sl
# ln -s libXext.3 libXext.sl
# ln -s libXhp11.3 libXhp11.sl
# ln -s libXi.3 libXi.sl
# ln -s libXm.4 libXm.sl
# ln -s libXp.2 libXp.sl
# ln -s libXt.3 libXt.sl
# ln -s libXtst.2 libXtst.sl

Do I need to follow Preinstallation Requirements for Oracle Configuration Manager as well

Also Do I need to create the The OSDBA group (dba); The OSOPER group (oper) and The OSASM group (asmadmin) now or is it also after the installation.

yes, you can create the groups first then go ahead with installation.
