the subject says it all really, but i am wondering if it is possible to share/install content (media) files between 2 different installers, PC and Mac. the only solution we've found requires all media to be part of the package and this uses double the disk space.

Shells scripts don't give any progress feedback to the GUI and that is an issue with the files which can be up to 2GB. I found this older thread at the link below. it explains the problem, and includes suggestions in more detail, but sadly the problem wasn't solved. any suggestions are welcome!
