Berkley DB error while trying to create a new repository

[Justin Rush <jr...@scout.wisc.edu>]

Hello,
    I have just installed subversion 1.0.1 rpm on redhat 9 running 
kernel : kernel-2.4.20-20.9.  I am trying to create a new repository in 
the directory I have chosen to store my svn repositories, /var/subversion :
drwxr-xr-x    3 svnowner svnowner     4.0K Mar 24 08:26 subversion
.....
However when I attempt to create a new repository I get the following 
error ( as root ):
#: /usr/bin/svnadmin create /var/subversion/test
svn: Berkeley DB error while creating environment for filesystem 
/var/subversion/test/db:
Invalid argument
....
and here is the files that it did create:
 /var/subversion/test)>ls
total 36K
drwxr-xr-x    7 root     root         4.0K Mar 24 09:13 .
drwxr-xr-x    3 svnowner svnowner     4.0K Mar 24 09:13 ..
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4.0K Mar 24 09:13 conf
