Slightly lateral question: why do both ISO's use the same volume name?  If you can avoid that, the problem should go away.

Hi Paul,

Yes it also has the same problem. Most disappointing fact is that, the preflight scripts from the first mounted iso get called even if we launch the installer from second mounted iso.

Can you extract what you want from $0?  Or does this suffer from the same problem?

Subject: Problem installing when multiple iso's with are mounted

 

Hi,

I am using packagemaker 3.0.4 which comes with Xcode 3.2.3.  We are delivering our products in the form iso and we use the mount point name (volume name) “User software”. If I do an ls –l in the terminal, I get the following path.

 

/Volume/User software – mount path for iso mounted first (The complete path to the installer is /Volume/User software/OSX/OSX installer.mpkg)

/Volume/User software 1 – mount path for iso mounted second (The complete path to the installer is /Volume/User software 1/OSX/OSX installer.mpkg)

 

The problem I am facing is, if I start the installation from the mount I have mounted second, the $1 in preflight script will always gives the path of the installer which I have mounted first. ie I get the value /Volume/User software/OSX/OSX installer.mpkg in $1. Same is happening in postflight script also.

 

Please help me on this. This is very urgent and we will not be able to ship our products without fixing this. A help is needed and it is greatly appreciated.

 

 

Thanks and Regards,
