It is only launched if: - you required root authentication for the package - the package requires a restart. Again, your best bet is to install a package with a RunAtStartup script. You could also try playing with the ENABLE_RUNNER_DEBUGGING env. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Thanks for the replying. I know and understand what this RunAtStartup purpose is. I am asking if anyone knows what the installer does to the system to prepare for the script to run at start. Does it create a startup item, enable a launchd script, put the script in a special location for the reboot to use. 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? 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. Since it's a script, you should be able to modify it to log information that could prove useful. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
