How to install some mpkg, an idea

[ramuntcho]

Hello,

During our install, we use some pkg or mpkg which don’t install correctly, by example Adobe Flash Player 11, update of Adobe Reader in 10.1.2, McAfee 9.1, MacTeX2011… So we put these packages in one directory and opt it in /Applications. And in the script of firstboot, we use the command installer -pkg name_of_the_package -target / It’s working very well, that’s great.

Hello,

I simply use first a pkg which copy, by example, the MacTeX-2011.mpkg in a folder name Enveloppe (or what you want) in /Applications. Then, in the script of firstboot, i use the command :

/usr/sbin/installer -pkg /Applications/Enveloppe/MacTeX-2011.mpkg -target /
/bin/rm -R /Applications/Enveloppe
