Gotcha, I see why it's best practice to use quotes. Thanks, Don On Jan 29, 2013, at 6:39 AM, Andrew Keller <andrew@kellerfarm.com> wrote:

In my experience, $3 contains '/' if you are installing onto the boot volume. To check a volume name with spaces, install onto a non-boot volume that happens to also have spaces in the volume name.

I'd recommend at least putting quotes around $3 in case the volume name has spaces in it.

Ok, I tested the below, works like a charm. We selected Distribution, and Bundle.

We are trying to crate a wrapper installer that will run a PKG/MPKG that we place into /private/tmp directory.

/private/tmp/installer.pkg

Using Packages, first question - should we select Distribution or Raw format?

Do we select Flat or Bundle?

OK, with that out of the way, what is the "post-install" script syntax needed to run the PKG that we placed into /private/tmp directory?

Does this look right? Or is there some other syntax needed?

#!/bin/sh # # installer -pkg /private/tmp/installer.pkg -target $3 # # exit 0

Thanks, Don
