start CD 12.2.0.48 with R12.2 Stage

Oracle recommends to use the latest version of start CD for fresh EBS Installation.
Steps:
1) Verify the version of existing start CD
2) Rename/delete the existing start CD directory
3) Download and copy the patch into the existing stage area
4) unzip the patch and verify the version of start CD
1) Verify the version of existing start CD:
Each start CD Disk contains executable "RapidWizVersion", it will display the version of existing startCD.
[root@appnode2 rapidwiz]# pwd

[root@appnode2 rapidwiz]# ls

2) Rename/delete the existing start CD directory
Rename or delete the existing start CD directory from the staging area. In my setup i just renamed it to startCD_46.
 3) Download and copy the patch into the existing stage area
login to support.oracle.com with a valid CSI account and download patch "18086193"
[root@appnode2 startCD_122_48]# cp p18086193_R12_GENERIC.zip  /u11/R12.2_Stage
4) unzip the patch and verify the version of start CD
- unzip the patch in the existing stage directory and patch will create new directory for startCD
[root@appnode2 R12.2_Stage]# ls
EBSInstallMedia  p18086193_R12_GENERIC.zip  startCD_46  TechInstallMedia  TechPatches
[root@appnode2 R12.2_Stage]# unzip -o p18086193_R12_GENERIC.zip
- Verify the version of startCD
Execute "RapidWizVersion" command from the new stratCD directory
[root@appnode2 startCD]# cd Disk1/
[root@appnode2 Disk1]# ls
doc  html  images  rapidwiz
[root@appnode2 Disk1]# cd rapidwiz/
[root@appnode2 rapidwiz]# ls
bin            driver  File    jlib  oui       RapidWiz.cmd  RapidWizVersion      TechInstallers  unzip
