At metalink (oracle support) I found a document "Linux OS Installation with Reduced Set of Packages for Running Oracle Database Server" [ID 728346.1]. In this document it stated that no additional tasks should be included when installing Enterprise Linux. So, this time I also didn't check 'Software Development' (besides Web Server, Clustering and Storage Clustering).
Now, At a next step, when trying to install the VirtualBox Guest Additions I got the message "Building the VirtualBox Guest Additions kernel modules [FAILED]". The content of /var/log/vboxadd-install.log:
Makefile:23: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel.
Specify KERN_DIR= and run Make again..
As a result, I was not able to mount a shared drive. So I had to solve this first. I installed all packages from the Oracle Linux 5 distribution media mentioned in the document "Oracle E-Business Suite Installation and Upgrade Notes Release 12 (12.1.1) for Linux x86-64" [ID 761566.1]:

1): were allready installed (message).
After installing all those packages I still got the same error message. Surfing on the internet I found out that I had to install the kernel-devel-2.6.18-194.el5.x86_64.rpm (not mentioned in [ID 761566.1]). After installation of that package, I managed to install the VirtualBox Guest Additions.
Also see my page "Installation of Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.5 in VirtualBox". I added it some weeks ago, but as I am still preparing the Oracle Linux environment for installation of EBS R12.2, the document is still under construction.
