Not sure why this is happening. I made a new image and tried to install quick add and it fails and says that "The installer can't install some files in "/". Contact the software manufacture for assistance." I have repaired permissions and that does not seem to help. I dont' see anybody else with this error either. Any ideas?

Thanks.

The computer that you are trying to add Quick Add check the date and time.

Also, are you trying to install off a nw volume? Try local.
