I have the same problem...it exists because of the way rbook's installer is constructed. I really wish the developer would drop the idea of having the installation script set up the database and instead just offer a MySQL dump and allow users to upload it, via phpMyAdmin or whatever their host provides, like so many other, easy to install, projects do. Many hosts don't allow the kind of database admin user permissions the script requires and without them I'm left having to inspect the files to work out the database structure then having to try to construct it by hand.
The install script makes it unlikely that a great many potential users will be able to install this software at all...surely that isn't what any of us want to occur?
