| I thought that any script that the installer runs has to be a perl or shell script. can it be an applescript application/application bundle? if that is the case perhaps this will work however i am running as root (could be my big problem)

I have no trouble creating aliases on Tiger. The one I use is much different from what you have here. This is what I use. This particular one creates an alias of a folder XYZ Folder from Macintosh HD/Users/Shared to Applications. If the alias is a file, just change "If exists folder" to "If exists file". This script works perfect for me. I save it as an application with the name "postflight". HTH.

tell application "Finder" if exists folder "XYZ Folder" of folder "Macintosh HD:Users:Shared" then make new alias file to alias "Macintosh HD:Users:Shared:XYZ Folder" at alias "Macintosh HD:Applications" end if end tell
