Mladen,
I guess I didn't complete my sentences. After restarting the
rawdevices service the CRS installation was successful. I still don't
understand what the problem was but the restart resolved it. There are
still many things about RAC which are mysterious to me.
Thanks.

Bill, I had several encounters with RAC (version 9 and 10) where I had
to install the sucker. It is a sheer lottery.
The product is immature, lousily documented and extremely hard to
install. Oracle has bought TruCluster64 from
HP (formerly DEC) and now wants to implement it in their databases. ASM
and cssd are the very first implementation.
I can wholeheartedly recomend K. Gopalakrishnan's RAC handbook in the
Oracle Press edition, an excellent book.
Installing RAC 10g is baptism by fire and the product will, hopefully,
stabilize in the next version or two. On the plus
side, when the product stabilizes, you will be an expert, able to charge
$100/hour. On the minus side, if you have in mind
the way that the world is going, it is questionable whether $100 will
buy you a gallon of gasoline. You might need to park
your car on a beachfront property in Las Vegas or Denver.
