[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1499943, member: 71075"] It may not be using any switch since the graphical installer may just be doing the copying itself. In other words, the graphical interface invoked when you execute it may not be using the same method that you'd use when executing it from the command line. Every .app based installer is inherently unique since it's a non-standard method of installing files (pkgs being the standard). As such, they are all going to operate uniquely. [/QUOTE]
