Installation problem- WoW: Cataclysm

[conqq]

So I went to midnight release just now, yadda yadda, and when I popped in the disc I found that I couldn't specify where WoW installs. Anyone know how to customize where it goes?

You know what, for whatever reason it's letting me this time... my public test folder was ruining the installation

You don't actually need to use the disc. Just enter the key at Battle.net.

As Cataclysm isn't a standalone game you need World of Warcraft installed before installing Cataclysm so Cataclysm automatically installs in directory you set for your original World of Warcraft install. If you wish to change this you can either uninstall World of Warcraft and re-install all of it's expansions or manually edit some Registry Keys, Short Cuts and move a few folders around.

Public/Games for Vista/7.
Program files for XP.
?????? For mac.

Sorry, but this is wrong, Cataclysm ships with the whole (outdated -.-) game client. No other previous addons are needed for the Installation. They are only required for actually upgrading your acc and playing the game.
