When installing Oracle, what’s the quickest way to check rpm packages and install what is missing

installationoracle

When installing Oracle, there is a step which is to install all necessary packages. I use the following command to test whether a package is installed and install them if they are missing:

rpm -qa | grep binutils

I know I can verify all packages in this way, but I want to know whether there is a better and quicker way to do this task.

Thanks.

Check out Howard Roger's gladstone shell script. His scripts have always done a great job for me in performing all the necessary pre-installation tasks.
