Install Oracle 19.7 on RHEL 8

According to MOS Certifications:

Oracle Database 19.0.0.0.0 is certified on Linux x86-64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 Update 0+

Minimum RU: 19.7 (or 19.6 with patches, refer to aforementioned certification notes)

Minimum kernel version: 4.18.0-80.el8.x86_64 or later

I can only download Oracle 19.3 from otn.oracle.com or edelivery (there's 19.5 but it's for Solaris; my OS is RHEL 8.0). I downloaded it, unzipped LINUX.X64_193000_grid_home.zip in my intended GI Home, ran gridSetup.sh (with or without -ignorePrereqFailure), and immediately got error

[INS-08101] Unexpected error while executing the action at state:

'supportedOSCheck'

The log shows /u01/app/grid/cv/cvdata/cvu_prereq.xml, which only lists RHEL7, not 8. Without hacking, is there any way to install it?

Howdy, Stranger!
