I'm trying to install 11.2.0.1 RAC on a couple of OEL5.7 hosts. During execution of root.sh on the first node, I'm getting
ORA-15018: diskgroup cannot be created
ORA-15038: disk '' size mismatch with diskgroup [4096] [] []

when the installation is trying to initialize a new ASM group GRID (to store OCR and voting file) based on GRID_DISK (see below).

fdisk output and /dev/oracleasm/disks contents is the same on both nodes.

fdisk -l /dev/sdb

Disk /dev/sdb: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 10240 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1               1       10240    10485759+  83  Linux

ls -l /dev/oracleasm/disks

Howdy, Stranger!
