Oracle Installer checks for system requirement before starting installation so if you have ommited shared memory & shemaphore setting in Linux/Unix then Installer will not process further and gives you some error.

On unix box we should need to set up shared memory and semaphore due to following reasons.
1) Unix has typical mechanism for setting up and sharing memory in operating system layer.
2) We should need to set up those parameters in Linux,Solaris and HP unix. There is no need to set up these parameters in AIX box because AIX set automatically.
3) There is no mechanism available in Windows like shared memory.
4) Semaphore is the operating system latch/lock for processing request in operating system layer and kernel layer.
5) In windows there is process structure available like unix because it uses own THREAD structure.
