This is OS X 10.4.1

there is one internal (boot) and one external (backup) disk drive.
both are Mac OS Extended (Journaled), disk utility shows no problems with the disks.

fink refuses to install on the boot disk, saying that it does not support symlinks, but it will install on the backup disk.

booting from the backup disk, fink still will not install on the (original) boot disk, but it will install on the (original) backup disk (now booted from).

what is going on here? what do I need to do to get fink to install on my boot volume, or to get my boot volume to support symlinks?
