It is copied, but many install scripts look it from the wrong location (C:).

Not, it's not

Hmm, I guess that's because the installer and reboot are located on the Install-floppy, and no files are copied from it.

Anyway, I stand corrected.

WB 3.1 users should probably also replace the original Installer with Installer-43.3 from aminet, and copy it to both SYS:Utilities/ and SYS:C/.

There are files copied from the install disk: 68040.library, HDToolbox and HDBackup.

Quite strange not to copy the installer then, considering many apps depend on it. Heh...

Also, the OS 3.1 installer does copy the installer.catalog, so why not Installer? :-)
