Welcome to Atlassian community

Just to be double sure, are you installing Bamboo in Windows or Linux, looking at 777 permission I would assume it is Linux but want to be double sure.

Can you also check what error you are getting in \<bamboo-home\>logs\>atlassian-bamboo.log file

There are few things which I can think can be wrong here  

1. Read and Write Permissions to the user which is running Bamboo to the \<bamboo-home\> and \<bamboo-install\> directory, make sure it has read/write access and the folder and all files are owned by Bamboo user

2. Insufficient space , check with df -h

3. Insufficient Inodes - Check with df -i

Probably I would like you to delete the folder and again and start everything from scratch and make sure permission is given beforehand.
