Hey Everyone,
I know that Apple's installer will respect the "RunAtStartup" script for an installer script. Does anyone know what actually happens with that script and where it is placed to be run at boot time?

IIRC, this script is launched on the next restart.

It is only launched if:

- you required root authentication for the package

- the package requires a restart.

For the location, you can use fs_usage to check where the file will get installed. This may require a remote connection as Installer.app may or may not copy this file after the user has been logged out.
