Search google is not an answer, although a good suggestion. Could you please post the solution you came up with to the list. There are many ways to skin this cat, I think we would all benefit from your experience.

Correct. You are NOT running them as root, but you can easily tell the script to "sudo su" and go from there, which in effect will make you root.

Also have you looked at making the uninstaller be an apple script?

Also does any one know if there is a setup program like there use to be on Windows (IE Nullsoft)?
