Hi there...
the reason it couldn't run was the lack of a larger /tmp.
you have two options. If you have lots of RAM, you should make tmp
a little larger in mfs. to do so, find the line in /etc/fstab (as root)
that has
swap (mumble mumble) -s(some number) {more mumble}
and make the number after s larger.
(the number is completely incomprehensible, but put in twice what
you think you should -- i.e. 40960 is 20 megs)
alternatively, you can remove the line completely, and then /tmp
will live on /
