Product Platform: MacOS,MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

I installed it on my PowerBook G4 without problems. For some reason I get the following error when I try to install into my eMac:

"This installation requires a System Folder on the destination drive. The installation has been cancelled.
1008:1,-43 File not found"

Is anybody else having this problem?   
System Info:Mac OS X 10.3.4

problems installing - mrmacwow

Sounds like the installer might have issue with the OS 9 classic configuation on the eMac. Here is what I suggest you try:

On the eMac, launch Classic . After Classic opens, select the Apple menu under Classic and open Extensions Manager from the control panel. After the Extentions Manager opens, simply close it. Quit Classic and try reinstalling the aio SW again. There is a issue with the installer where if the Classic (OS 9) System folder doesn't contain certain folders (like a startup items) it will not be able to install. The installer attempts to install printer drivers for both Classic and OSX. Hope this helps..
