[Solved] Can't get past preflight installation script in Leopard
Hi,
I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Leopard, and it's been working great except for the fact that I can't get Parallels Desktop to install. The problem is that the preflight installation script hangs: the installer says "Running Parallels Desktop Installer Script", but it just hangs there. Here is the log:

Eventually I just give up and kill the process. I've tried using both build 5160 and 5540 to no avail. Can anyone help me? It worked great in Tiger!
