Hi!

I got some warnings in the TYPO3 install tool, which I consider to be 
incorrect. What do you think about warnings below?

============================================
/ is not writable
Path /xxx/typo3master exists, but no file below can be created.

/index.php is a link, but link target is not as specified
Link target should be typo3_src/index.php but is ../yyy/index.php

/typo3 is a link, but link target is not as specified
Link target should be typo3_src/typo3 but is ../yyy/typo3

/typo3_src should be a link, but it does not exist
Links can not be fixed by this system
============================================

Firsts, why should be the root of the site writable? It is not a error to 
have it write protected. Only certain directories should be writable by 
TYPO3 and not the root of the site.

Next, TYPO3 is not required to have typo3_src as a symlink to the actual 
core location. typo3/ and index.php can point to the location directly. So 
this is not a error either.

I would remove these errors because they are false but they can become 
warnings as well.

What do you think?
