If it were my machine, I'd conclude that adding user "cacti" failed 
because it's already there, and stupid script can't add what's already 
there so it throws an error...

So I would try "make -i install" next, and see what happens.

The -i means "ignore errors" - you might try "man make" too while you're 
at it.

Good luck,
