I'm trying to install a clean Slackware 12.2 (2.6.27.7) under ESXi, and
can almost guarantee getting this error immediately after formatting the
root partition. It's happened 4 out of the 5 times I've tried, so far.
The sequence of commands, after digging through the install scripts,
that lead to this failure are just:
mkfs.xfs
mount
mkdir
Apologies for posting the stack trace as a couple of jpg's, but it's the
only way I could capture them, as I don't have any VMs set up, yet, that
have conectivity to upload any files. The stack trace can be found at:

I'm guessing that it's something to do with this running under a VM, but
is there any way to stop it happening.
Cheers,
Eddie
