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. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
