You need a newer installer by the looks of it.

Try this one http://aminet.net/package/util/misc/Installer-43_3

First extract the Installerarchive. Then copy Installer43_3/installer to C:

If you are using workbench 3, the installer program is in the c directory of the install disk. It doesn't get copied over during installation for some reason but you can copy it manually to the c directory of your workbench partition of your hard drive.
