One way to avoid keeping DMG files after installation
Authored by: morespace54 on Jan 11, '08 11:17:29AM

Great Idea!

So the cmd whould be:
mv '/Users/MyShortUsername/Path/To/MyDownloaded.dmg' '/private/tmp/'

Obviously, you must replace 'MyShortUserName' with your correct username , replace 'Path/To/' with the correct path to your dmg file and finally replace 'MyDownloaded.dmg' with the correct name of your dmg file.
If you don't use the quotes for the source path and the destination path, just remember to escape the spaces in the paths with backslash! ('\')

Just /tmp

You know, you don't have to use /private/tmp. Just /tmp will do. In fact, it's preferred to use /tmp.
