19c Database Install on OEL8 with no internet access

I have OEL8 running on Virtual Box on my work laptop. Restrictions mean I cannot bridge the network adaptor to get out to the internet on the VM.

The install instructions say run dnf -y install oracle-database-preinstall-19c but obviously the server cant get out to pull down the package and any other files.

I have downloaded oracle-database-preinstall-19c-1.0-2.el8.x86_64.rpm and copied this to the server. I then run:

rpm -ivh oracle-database-preinstall-19c-1.0-2.el8.x86_64.rpm - this attempts to run, but complains about 3 files being dependencies and are missing. I download the first one, which runs. The next 2 then mention further dependencies. I am up to 5 different files and each time I run one, I get further errors stipulating further files are needed. I just need to be able to run the preinstall and proceed with the install. I have seen a list of around 30 dependences that need to be installed.
