I have symlink for /home to point to /usr/home. When the installer was looking for packages to install, it crashed there saying it could not make the directory /tmp/sysimage/home. I am wondering if any major dir that may have a symlink like this might be problem. Email me at brw at brw dot net if you have any quesit
What does your /etc/fstab file look like?
Created attachment 165 [details] /etc/fstab on system with problems
I believe RPM has issues following links like you have setup.
