Was there more to the traceback? It seems like there should have been more data there.
that was the entire traceback I did a new install on the previus box, so will not be able to reproduce it but I have 2 other boxes which are of the same upbringing I will be upgradine them shortly
On this I read this may occur in some systems where links to /tmp are symbolic on all my system /tmp has been mover to a different partition, this may, as least give yuou someting to go by
Yes, if /tmp is a symlink, this will cause the installer trouble.
msf, you've dealt with this in the past. What would you recommend to him?
Can you attach your /etc/fstab file and the output of 'ls -l /'?
