    ERROR: rpm is installed but /opt/freeware/bin is inaccessible.
    This can happen if the file system containing /opt/freeware
    is unmounted or corrupted. Please mount the file system
    containing /opt/freeware before installing rpm.rte.

    Failure occurred during pre_rm.
    Failure occurred during rminstal.
    Filesets processed: 669 of 702 (Total time: 33 mins 42 secs).

    mkdir: 0653-358 Cannot create /usr/opt/freeware.
    /usr/opt/freeware: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
    instal: Failed while executing the rpm.rte.pre_i script.

    of the following filesets:

    Did you tried mkdir -p /usr/opt/freeware ?
    Did you tried chmod u+rwx /usr /usr/opt /usr/opt/freeware ?
