Mac OS X has its very own installation system with its own format of installation packages and metadata required for packaging of your products. You need to learn it:

A bit of effort and a power of result! Why today's people are so lazy? I can't get it!
+5!

Thank you, Maciej.
I don't know. Maybe, some just need a confirmation: "it's ok, just proceed". I actually created the Mac OS X packages, so I can be sure it works, but some may not be.

Not blind, just dislexic: it's "K" (1024), not "M". :-)
Thank you again. :-)
