phpMyAdmin is driving me crazy!

I have untarred the 2.9.1-rc2 version in /var/www/html and created a 
softlink name of phpMyAdmin.

I had, I thought, followed the instructions. I have in fact gone beyond 
the instruction but when I enter 
http://localhost/phpMyAdmin/scripts/setup.php in Firefox I get:


"Can not load or save configuration
Please create web server writable folder config in phpMyAdmin toplevel 
directory as described in documentation. Otherwise you will be only able 
to download or display it.

In trying to get past this error, the entire phpMyAdmin folder is now 
owned by apache and *everything* has been chmod'ed to 777....I can't get 
any more world writeable than that but still the error.


# ls -al /var/www/html/phpMyAdmin/
drwxrwxrwx  2 apache apache   4096 Dec  8 14:52 config

# ls -al /var/www/html/phpMyAdmin/config
-rwxrwxrwx  1 apache apache 1851 Dec  8 14:52 config.inc.php
And the same for scripts/*

Does anyone have any idea how I can kill the gremlin in this???
