[ome-users] ome install failure on mac OS 10.4.7

Dear OME team-
I have tried installing ome on my powerbook G4 (sorry no intel chip)  
and have failed. I include the OME-install.log for any help you could  
give me.
It seems to fail because the omeis script tries to change directories  
to /OME/OMEIS and fails with some permission problems. I include the  
terminal ouput from a number of commands to outline what I think has  
gone wrong (see below).  Additionally, the first time I tried the  
installation, I got some errors in the log about users (specifically  
"ome" and "steve") not able to be added to the "ome" group. It told  
me to fix this in the /etc/group file before continuing. Knowing just  
enough to be dangerous, I added those two users to the ome group in  
the / domain using the netinfo manager and didn't change the files as  
suggested in the install log.  During my next attempt at  
installation, the error of manually adding users to the ome group was  
gone, but the install failed at the same point.   I think the problem  
is the following:

All of this is just conjecture though, As I'm a lowly biologist, I  
could be way off base.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
