I've changed it to a waring and with the next release rhe script will 
continue. The exit is a litte bit to hard :-(

The problem is that for creating the bootdisk there are at least 4 mounts to 
the intall-server and loop-backmounts are needed. As thoses mounts depend on 
the Version you want to install we can't use fixed mountpoints wwhich you can 
add to your fstab :-(

I beleive in /usr/lib/alice/utils there is a script 
called
httpd_wrapper_make_disk

use it as sudo httpd_wrapper_make_disk $ALICE_HOME fqhn > bootdisk

uses a line like the following in your /etc/sudoers
wwwrun  ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/alice/utils/httpd_wrapper_make_disk

or maybe the line:
wwwrun  ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/lib/alice/utils/make_inst_disk

should be enough

There is no need to +s mount
