No matter what I do, and no matter what permissions I give to

'system' as being the owner, and hence such directories are locked.
How do I create a directory from within a postinstall tool that is
unlocked?
I had assumed that since the package was running with root
permissions and since the installer has authorization, the
directory would be created with unlocked permissions. Attempting to
set the owner or group or permissions on any created dirs after
they are created also fails.
Stupid questions of the day:
- Which API and methods do you use to create your directory?
- Which API and methods do you use to to change the owner, group or
permissions?
