I downloaded and unpacked the script, made a directory called forum and chmodded it 777. Put the install.php script there, and browsed to it.
My server has safe mode enabled, if that's relevant.
When I pwd the forum directory I get this:
/home/travelersdiary/www/forum
this is what I'm getting in the form fields:
Server Root: /www/travelersdiary/forum/
Forum Data Root: /home2/www/travelersdiary/forum/
Forum WWW Root: http://www.travelersdiary.comrsdiary/forum/
Even when I change these (including the really weird Forum WWW Root), the action in the script points to
action="rsdiary/forum/install.php?261833389"
which isn't going to work.
and this obviously takes me to a non existant page. Any ideas?

The URL of install.php is relative to the current directory, if you view the HTML source you'll see that action="install.php?random_string"

Try the following script:
[php]
<?php
echo basename(__FILE__);
?>

I ran it from /home2/travelersdiary/www/forum/test.php and got
test.php
ahhhh....
so I changed the line in install.php to
<form name="install" action="<?php echo basename(__FILE__).'?'.rand(); ?>" method="post">
and I'm onto stage 2

on the latest download of 2.5 (FUDforum2_20030626.tar.gz) I changed these lines in install.php to get rid of errors.
789 # if (($d = dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']))) {
790 if (($d = dirname(basename(__FILE__)))) {
791 # $WWW_ROOT .= dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
792 $WWW_ROOT .= dirname(basename(__FILE__));
793 if ($d != '/') {
794 $WWW_ROOT .= '/';
795 }
796 }
797 # $SERVER_DATA_ROOT = realpath(str_replace(dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) . '/', '', $SERVER_ROOT) . '/../') . '/FUDforum/';
798 $SERVER_DATA_ROOT = realpath(str_replace(dirname(basename(__FILE__)) . '/', '', $SERVER_ROOT) . '/../') . '/FUDforum/';
