I'm working on an Installer plugin that will find the target location for me, and I don't want the Target section to show up. If I remove it from the InstallerSections.plist, the installer complains about not having enough disk space. Do I need to some environment variables or something in my plugin to get the rest of the installer to continue properly?

You can't do this. Removing standard steps can trigger a crash in Installer.app or prevent installation from working correctly.


One workaround could be to set the target volume to be the root volume only but as there's still a bug in the latest version of Leopard with the Change Location... button being shown occasionally, you can't really do this either. Yet this is the best solution so far.
