The oratab.sh asks you several questions about your oracle install (i.e. ORACLE_HOME, Oracle's "owner", etc.) What I did when installing 8.0.5 was to always log in as oracle (my owner) and then su to root. If you just log into root, you will not have /usr2/oracle/bin in your path, and I assume that's the required directory that you are missing.
