is that filesystem writable ?
i.e. if you do a "chown 500:500 somefile" does it give the same error?
is it a Linux filesystem? ie. not fat32
This is what I get - any clues?
I got it from:

Thanks!

is that filesystem writable ?

It's writable, but it is fat32 - does that matter?
Thanks
PS Wait a minute though, I'm not so sure, HDA1 is a fat32 filesystem, HDA2 is my linux system partition, ext2, and 6 is my linux / windows shared files partition, where I have the program I am trying to install - I am not sure where it is trying to write to. Any ideas? Should I move it to the ext2 partition?
Yes, you should put it onto an ext2 filesystem.
Fat32 doesn't support chmod.
