Can't install the Bundled applications from the Applications Install Disc

What OS X Version have you reinstalled?

What version of the Applications disc are you using

I was having the same issue after reinstalling a MacBook Pro 17 with OS X 10.6.6 this weekend.

When trying to install the Applications Install DVD, I got the message "An unknown installation error has occurred".

I connected the MacBook Pro to the Internet and let it download software updates. After rebooting, it had updated to OS X 10.6.8. Applications Install DVD came back with same error. Then the software updates ran again and this time there was an Apple Software Installer Update 1.0 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1512) . After this update, the Applications Install DVD loaded fine.

Hope this works for you.

thanks rjt65 🙂
