Mac terminal installer: Error trying to locate volume at /Applications

Question

I'm trying to install a pkg from the terminal. It works as

sudo installer -pkg desktop/test/firefox.pkg -target /

but this sends it to the root folder and I need it to go to the Applications folder.

Answer 1

When the command used is: "installer -package path/to/package -target / " it installs the package into /Applications by default.
