My replies are based on the 2.5.0 code, so please treat them as such.

Here is the current situation

You have a directory "/home/www/web170/html/fudforum", now you cannot install the forum into this directory because of safe_mode limitation. So, what you'll need to do is create another directory where the installer will be able to create files & directories.
For example:
you create a directory /home/www/web170/html/f and chmod it 777,
then you specify /home/www/web170/html/f/forum/ as the Server Root & Forum Data Root.
Once you click 'next', the following will happen, the install script will create directory /home/www/web170/html/f/forum/ and then make a copy of itself called install_safe.php. It'll then redirect you to that copy, which will try to create the rest of the forum's files inside /home/www/web170/html/f/forum/.
Once that is done you'll proceed with the usual installation steps.
