On second look, it seems like core.php should have been writable. Any changes in specific I should be looking for to see if it actually did write?

did you 'chmod 0777 config' from your app directory before running the installer?

Nope. 770 with the correct group ;)

That being said, the ticket was more in reference to the installer thinking it was completed correctly than to my having a problem installing.

This still happens in 1.5.x, although with a different file, ie: Config/croogo.php
