I have had success in getting the workstation to reboot using: but alas, no dialog. I have read several documents on the subject but have not been able to find a way to display said dialog. Has anyone had any success getting the dialog to appear from within a shell script? The preferred way of "enforcing" restarts after a package install is to set an appropriate post-install action in PackageMaker. Is the IFPkgFlagRestartAction key not respected in Jaguar? This document [1] seems to suggest that it is, though I could find no definitive evidence.
