Betreff: packageMaker - how to install into /Library/Preferences

Hi,

I am trying to install an item into /Library/Preferences. Having built
my installer it does that if I am logged in as root, and root only. The
account that was setup at installation of OSX doesn't suffice,
although it always, no matter what user, does ask to validate the
installation asking for some admin-user.

The installer runs, but unless I login to my machine as root in the
first place, after the installation is done the folder I wanted to have
installed is not there. If I am logged in as root it is there. Is this a
bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Alex
