if you are strapped with 10.1.0.5 for compatibility purposes, I would
definitely try and get the other pieces of the RAC stack on later versions,
if possible. Get your cluster running the latest clusterware you can, same
goes for ASM,OCFS/OCFS2 if you are going to use those.

We use RHEL 4 with a 2.6 kernel. I haven't tried running 10gR1 on it. Check
the certification matrices on metalink.
