The Apple package format (either flat or bundle) allows you to do
that. (PackageMaker is just a tool to build the package, not install
it).
I don't have access to PackageMaker 3 but I was able to find some
instructions here:

PackageMaker_3 Instructions.pdf
End of page 9 should help you.
Good luck.

No, this approach doesn't work. There's no telling when the script
gets invoked.
Surely PackageMaker can do something as simple as run a pre- and
post- flight script??

Interesting! If I do this, it prompts me with the path of the
script. Does PM automatically include this script in the package,
or does it assume it preexists on the machine you're installing on?

Sounds fine, but how do I tell PackageMaker to do that?

Hey Mr. Sims,
What if you run a script that has your commands in it as part
of that preinstall?
