Seeing setup assistant unexpectedly

[mleacy]

I created a payload-free package with the following script as a postflight:

#!/bin/bash

touch /private/var/db/.AppleSetupDone
chown root:wheel /private/var/db/.AppleSetupDone
chmod 600 /private/var/db/.AppleSetupDone

touch /Library/Receipts/.SetupRegComplete
chown root:admin /Library/Receipts/.SetupRegComplete
chmod 400 /Library/Receipts/.SetupRegComplete

exit 0

After applying the image to a machine, I get the setup assistant. What have I done wrong?

Thanks in advance!

I found clearReg, and using that, I don’t get the setup assistant. It seems you have to preceed your paths with “$3”.

You answered your own question, but look here:

at the table that’s headed with “Some information is passed by the installer to these scripts when they are launched”. That should give you a bit more insight into variables you can use.
