Guru vino & tomas:-)

What you say seems to make sense to me- that specific pkg takes the longest of all. I made a workaround to make it the last one to be installed- however, I know I have to put into some safety measure in between of any 2 pkgs installations based on what you said.

One thing I have to mention, I do have controls in the loop I omitted earlier just to simplify the example. I validate entries in the line & check returning from the installpkg commond- pkgadd - etc, but there was no error whatsoever.

invoking them in the backgroud may work, but I need to display & save the screen shots of the whole process to a log, as well, some pkgs have interactive prompts.

Perhaps the command pkgadd is asynchronous?
