Dragonshadow Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I need help! Every time I try to install Kalyway, it failes at javatools.pkg! I have burned the disc twice and they match the md5! The second time my dad burned it with his (real) mac! Install failed: The installer could not verify the contents of the "Javatools" package, please contact the software manufacturer for assistance. Is there any command I can put alongside vanilla and -v that will skip this package? Or the reason WHY it won't validate?

BeSublime Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I'm having the same problem but with the 'iChat' package. The first time I had a package error it was with the essentials pkg, and after some googling I figured it was a RAM problem, especially considering I knew before hand that my ram had some issues. So a different stick got me almost to the end of the install, but at about 7 minutes remaining I got the "could not verify the contents of the 'iChat' package" error, which I imagine is similar to yours. (I'm using Kalyway also.) Let me know if you figure/d this out and I'll do the same if I come across anything helpful! Sorry for any typos, posted this from my iPhone...

robertmorr Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Solution for me turned out to be an uncompatible IDE DVD drive. I had the exact same error message -- "Installer cannot verify Javatools package; please contact software vendor" occurring with ~8 minutes left in the install. I was using a Plextor drive that was relatively expensive and had worked perfectly in the MS world. I tried everything, including burning the install ISO on the Plextor drive itself at 2.4x -- nothing worked. Switched to a cheap NEC ND3500-A DVD (IDE again) drive and the install went flawlessly, first time. As an aside, I could not get a SATA DVD drive to even boot the leopard install disk. Hope this helps.
