Hello Ed,
thanks for your reply, but i found these URL's too, and it seems that the kernel 5.6.3 needs to be patched... brr....
No simple solution?
IMO, 2 simple solutions.
Don't run 5.6 kernel until Oracle gets its act together.
Or, do what I did and switch to qemu/kvm virtualization.

Good to know.
Yet, I am happier now that I've switched to qemu/kvm. :-)

I raw boot a second disk with vbox. I currently don't know if it's possible to do so with kvm - I should check it ... -

It's easy. Just add the raw device as a hard drive. You can even setup a qcow2 overlay so any changes get stored separately and don't get written to the hard drive.
