Hiro-- You should be able to run a Kontakt Player 2 installer (ours or someone else's--KP2 is installed to a global location on mac), and then put any files like GPOINSTRUMENT.txt into the FinaleAU folder. Hopefully whoever's KP installer you run will also be smart enough to update the proper prefs (ours is) on the system so that Finale finds it.
I think there is an installer issue that we need to tackle, though. I suspect the installer is reading the boot drive size instead of reading the destination drive size. Please send that in to support.
