When I installed from Cheep Bites I couldn't create the XF86Config file, although the setup carried on. The only slight problem I have had since is I can't run XF86Setup. (What a shame, as I would run xf86config anyway) (It mucks up my screen putting everything in This Sort Of Format Here.)
I think there is something wrong with the cheep bytes cd, as this is the third instance of this I have seen on this news group. The only difference with the install that I could think of that could cause your problem apart from an obscure hardware thing I can think of is that I chose the 'Custom Setup' and al so used dselect to remove all the packages I didn't need. If this doesn't help, I have no idea what is wrong.
