So, after much mucking around, I've found a way to set the max processes for the oracle user in OSX. I was running into a problem where it was stuck at the default value of 100.
10.3 allows the use of the /etc/sysctl.conf file to set the initial kernel parameters at boot time.
It didn't exist on my system, so I created it with the following 2 lines:
kern.maxprocperuid=512
kern.maxproc=2048
After a reboot, I can then launch a bash shell and the user can increase their max allowed processes to 512 or less.
I set this up automatically in the .bashrc script for the user, so that whenever the bash script was launced it ran the following command:
ulimit -u 500
Setting this up has now allowed me to run the Oracle Developer seed on my new G5 without a problem.

I added the two kern.maxxxx lines without success.
I'm still getting ORA-03113
Thanks in advance
