Installer is an application included in macOS (and in its progenitors OPENSTEP and NeXTSTEP) that extracts and installs files out of.pkg packages.It was created by NeXT, and is now maintained by Apple Inc. Its purpose is to help software developers create uniform software installers. Installer launches when a package or metapackage file is opened.

How To Fake 10.6 System Requirement To Install Dmg Pkg For Mac
Like the original poster, I've found a number of machines that require a Snow Leopard installer higher than what may be available (since the owners of those machines have invariably lost their discs and/or have bricked their optical drives). My method (and I will freely admit this was not my original idea) is to use a disk image of a 10.6.8 working HD that has not yet been through the personalization. I 'restored' this image to a few destinations—a toolkit, of sorts—a USB hard drive, FireWire HD, USB flash drive, and even a SDHC card. Then I went through the personalization with each one. Finally, I copied the original disk image (as a .dmg) to these destinations. Obviously, you need something like a 16GB flash drive or SDHC card.
I can then boot the intended 'target' machine using one of these devices and use Disk Utility to restore the 'virgin' 10.6.8 disk image to the machine's hard drive. With a FireWire machine, however, it's often easier to boot the target machine in target disk mode, plug it into my iMac, and do the restore from there.
As a side benefit, there are very few software updates then required.
