Here's my situation:

1. HP DL160G5 hardware RAID configured (striped).
2. Installing Oracle Unbreakable Linux (recent version).
3. Installation not a problem and system reboots.
4. Get the following messages (approximate):
USB 1-1: device not accepting address 2, error -71
...
..
/dev/sda2: read failed after 0 of 1024 at <large number>: input/ No
volume groups found
Buffer I/O error on device sda2, logical block <large number>
...
...
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
...
...
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempting to kill init!

5. The server reboots after this
6. This process repeats.

I've seen some stuff about:
a. kernel modules not in sequence
b. rebuilding the boot file using mkinitrd.
c. using modprobe, rmmod to remove certain usb modules.

None worked and the descriptions in most cases was not helpful. Has
anyone else seen this problem?

Maybe a BIOS problem/incompatibility with OEL version?

If you purchased support with OEL then you can try to get some help
from oracle ( good luck on that one ).  I tend to like to do the
install with almost every package in the world already selected but I
am lazy I guess.

Eventually to run Oracle you need to change the kernel away from
el5xen but normally you can do that after reboot.

Hello.

I'm not sure if this applies to your problem or not, but...

I had very hard times when installing and operating OEL with logical
volumes & volume manager. I had to entirely reinstall a server (the
second time on filesystems, no more logical volumes from then on) when
OEL was not able to find a volume group on boot.

You can read the whole story here (in spanish):

HTH.

Cheers.

Carlos.
