Re: Installp override?

I tried removing the 3 lines of prereqs from the .toc, but it did not seem to
make any difference...

have you tried modifying the .toc?
if there are pre install scripts in the bff that checks for the pre-req, those
will need to be modified

Is there anyway to get installp to install a product without it's prerequisites?
We have a home grown .bff file that prereqs some software. As it turns out,
the prerequisites are not really needed. I want to install from the .bff file
ignoring the prereqs.

I tried installp -Q -n but it still fails on the prereq check.

Any ideas?
