Hello all,
So I understand the basics of how to make and use an installer choices file.
Normally i stick to the items that I need and don’t pay attention to anything else in the list.
This is the first time I am working from a DVD that came with a computer, instead of the retail DVD. As such, I noticed some entries that were new to me and was wondering if anyone knew their exact use, if they should be included, excluded or simply not touched.
Round one:choiceIdentifier
WelcomeToLeopard.pkg

choiceIdentifier
CPU_UG_macpro.pkg

choiceIdentifier
CPU_AHT.pkg
—
choiceIdentifier
CPU_RegionalBoot.pkg
—
choiceIdentifier
CPUHelpFiles.mpkg
Are those going to mess with my hardware independent image?You could grab a copy of Pacifist:
see what they install, and use your best judgement. I’ll take a few guesses though:
> WelcomeToLeopard.pkg
Maybe there’s a Leopard tutorial? “What’s new” information?> CPU_UG_macpro.pkg
Possibly an installer for the computer-specific portions of OS X (drivers and such) that were needed when the CD was pressed?> CPU_AHT.pkg
Apparently some recent Macs have Apple Hardware Test on a separate, hidden partition. This may install it.> CPU_RegionalBoot.pkg
Is this a United States installer disc? My guess would be that this would cause the machine to start up in a foreign language on first restart…maybe.> CPUHelpFiles.mpkg
Possibly an installer for the computer-specific portions of help?These are still guesses–I have no inside knowledge.
