[comp.sys.mac] need help with installer

makmur@hardees.rutgers.edu (Hanz Makmur) (07/08/89)

Hi...
I am trying to make an installer script for my lab. 
In the script i am planning to copy INITs 
from a source disk to a target disk. 
However, when installing init (for example, vaccine)
I have problem because when the vaccine is active, the installation
will be really annoying.

After reading the Technotes -75 (about Installer), i found out that
there is a way to put the resource outside the system folder
by changing the bit-8 to one. So i configure the file Spec flag to E1B7
hoping that the installer will find the files out side the system folder.
But it does not work.

The question i have are these:
1. How do I make the installer know the location of the source files ?
2. Can I put the source files into folder other then the System folder ?

Thank you for any help that you can provide.
