Make sure that /tmp exists, is writable, and has at least 5 megabytes of available space. I tired to install it as a root and a regular user, but i got the same error for both cases. I also found the /tmp folder and there is nothing wrong with the permissions, any user can create folder and write files in the /tmp directory. Thanks </blockquote></div> Guys I solved this problem by using the following parameters install -glnx86 -nocp no I am facing another problem, during the installation I need to remove CD1 and put CD2 in the CDROM but I could not eject the CDROM and I got the following message: device is busy any solution please ? Thanks
