Linux Error While Booting: PCI: not using MMCONFIG and system hangs at “Starting Udev”

I'm trying to install Oracle Linux 5 on VMWare Workstation. Installation all went fine, but while the Operating System reboots before finalizing all the installation, System hangs at "Starting Udev".

Please follow below steps to fix above error:

Restart the Linux guest OS;
Press any key at the GRUB boot menu, press e to edit, and add the highlighted words at the “kernel” line; press enter, and then b to boot;
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5smp ro root=/dev/sdb1 clock=pmtmr divider=10 hgb quiet
Once it boots in the console, edit /boot/grub/grub.conf with the same setting.
