Please be more precise: with the information you have given, it is impossible to guess WHY it is failing: maybe a typo in your command-line, maybe permissions problems, maybe read-only filesystem. Read the error message. If you do not understand it, copy it as carefully as possible (copy-paste if you can) here "&> file" is a bashism but should work. "> file 2&1" is a typo for "> file 2>&1" If you can not obtain a writable filesystem, mount a tmpfs somewhere. Regards, -- Nicolas George
