Hmmm. This is really strange. It appears that you have write permissions
since a file entry was created (ie you got an empty grass5 file). The
only thing I can think of, and this is a shot in the dark, is that you
may have run out of disk space at the time the install script tried to
create the file. If this is not the case then check your SYSLOG file for
any indication of why you wouldn't be able to write to that particular
disk at that time.

Sorry I couldn't help you very much.
