1 Did you run the installer from Obarun live or from some other system? -- the reason I am asking is that I am wondering whether some automounting, filemanager, like udiskie, gvfs, is interfering. Can something else be using /mnt ...?
THANKS Galeano!
Really nice to join you!!!
I indeed have another running Linux system, but I boot from Obarun DVD (for avoiding conflicts etc). Although I have an UEFI system, it has the option (at boot time, to choose the traditional BIOS, which I'm always choosing (for avoiding UEFI consequences).

Let's call /mnt the target.
You say you mounted and formatted ... usually you have to format first and then mount.
Before you start the installer, what does "ls -al /mnt" show? How about "df"?
The installer should run by user, not root, using "sudo obarun-install"
I booted frod DVD and I launched the installer.
Not sure for the details.
Let me repeat the process, and I'll be back, with more details.
EDIT_1
I bypassed this incident, by formatting the partition, before launching the live cd.
The problem I have with the installer, is that I can't type letters, only numbers.
While I'm typing letters, the output is semigraphics (smiling faces etc).
After finishing the installation, I'll be back here.
EDIT_2
Didn't work for me.
After the restart,, power manager complains and the boot process stops.
I'll try again at the future.
Bye for now!!!
