Remove the System folder on the Disk Image (in most cases) Maybe there could be permissions issues as this is only an idea. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Does anyone know how to create installer packages from VISE packages? My goal here is to create an installer package of Dreamweaver that I can install via ARD. Dreamweaver is provided by Adobe in the VISE package format. I planned on packaging up the Dreamweaver VISE package, and an AppleScript that will install the package, all in one installer package and deploy it that way. If anyone could provide any hints or suggestions on this, it would be greatly appreciated. Additionally to the snapshot suggestion which is surely the best answer, there might be a stupid way to do it without a snapshot (but it looks like a snapshot). 3. Add a pseudo SystemVersion.plist file inside CoreServices. Maybe it would be required to add some things in Library --+-- Frameworks if there are some QuickTime requirement for instance. 5. Create a package and points the ROOT folder to the Mounted Disk Image. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
