im trying to install xfree86 4.1.0 (over 3.3.4) but i get this error

ln: cannot create hard link 'gnu-tar' Operation not permitted

ive downloaded all the correct files under 'Linux-ix86-glibc21'
but when i do 'sh Xinstall.sh' i get the above error
sh Xinstall.sh -check reports all is well

FWIW my kernel is 2.4.17 +  i have a geforce2mx200

what should i do?

also ive tried it manually with
chmod +x extract
rm -f gnu-tar
ln extract gnu-tar (but gives me the same error here)

cheers zed
