Yes I'm doing this on F11.

I also found something which could be an alternate explanation. When I
look in /var/tmp/, I see the folder mentioned above doesn't
exist. Instead there is another folder of a similar name,
/var/tmp/imgcreate-yvpmqw. I have a hunch this could be a leftover
from the first time the build failed.

On doing `mount -l' I see that the install_root under that is still
mounted. Trying to umount complains the device is busy. I could try to 
reboot and build again ... :-\

I will post back whether I succeed after a reboot.
