Is there enough space in the partition containing /var? Is the directory /var/lib/systemimager/images/oscarimage/var/lock/rpm/ there? The only thing I can think of is that it looks like the script doesn't have permision to write to that directory, or just can't for some reason...
Is this a install on a new 4.4 install or was this machine upgraded from 4.2? I have in the past had no end of trouble with upgrading any linux system. I am told this is a personal problem :) On 9/27/06, Otter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Greetings, > > I recently had a problem installing OSCAR 4.2 on CentOS 4.4.
