Yes, I have used it on arm and armeb succesfully before. Your error
sounds like either:

* no locking support in your FS (e.g. mtn doesn't work on nfs)
* no write access to the current dir (e.g. mtn can't write out the journal)
* no write access to /tmp (happened to me before, dunno the reason)

hopes this helps,
