Hi again Rich,
I'm trying to use febootstrap to install either rawhide or f13, but my attempts are failing.

Don't run febootstrap as root.
I'm a little confused about that. I understand the concept of fakeroot and fakechroot but I must be missing a piece of the puzzle. I want to build up a Fedora install that I will eventually boot into. At that point root should own the files. How does this work if I run febootstrap as a normal user? I did attempt to run febootstrap as myself, but got the same error shown above.
You don't say what version of febootstrap you are using or what host you're using it from.
I'm running on Ubuntu Lucid with the following versions: febootstrap 2.1-4 fakechroot 2.9-1.1 fakeroot 1.14.4-1ubuntu1 yum 3.2.25-1ubuntu2 Should I try again from git? Alternatively I'll just switch to installing a VM (since eventually this will be that) but I'm a longtime user of debootstrap so I'm pretty happy to find febootstrap, assuming it will work for me! Thanks, Aron
