Background: use PackageMaker to make an installer for installing device driver, and before complete installation process, notify the user to connect the device and computer by cable.



Requirement: my custom have special requirement to the dialog which is used to notify the user for connecting the device and computer. Before user click the “Close” button, the installer should popup a model dialog to notify, and this kind of dialog is same to the restart warning dialog. I mean it can not move and it locates in the up-middle of the installer window.



Anyone can give me some advice for the solution? Thanks very much.


2 solutions:

o Your solution works on Tiger and later only:

You can use a custom conclusion/summary text (you can even add a drawing to make things clearer).

o You launch a helper app at the end of the installation from the postflight script.
