I had the same trouble starting my test instance on a PIV with only 512M Ram. I got the folling hint from the list here (you need a Kernel 2.6.7 or above for that):
--- cut here --- create a new group, say `hugepageusers', add the oracle user to that group and write that group's ID into /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_shm_group.
For an explanation check out the 2.6.7 changelog here: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.7
... and search the page text for 'oracle'.
You can find more information on this issue in the Linux OTN forums here: http://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jsp?forum5 --- cut here ---
That at leased is working here.
