How to launch a dmg one by one in MAC OSX using Shell? [closed]

Question

I am using MAC OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion.

I am preparing a Shell Script to launch 3 dmg files one by one.

I want to launch the dmg file each one after the another dmg has been installed.

I am using the wait function in script, but it is waiting till one dmg has been closed.

Please suggest any solutions.

here's a way you can open dmg files, copy the app and unmount the volume, for each volume:

for f in *.dmg: do
    VOLUME=$(hdiutil attach "$f" | tail -1 | awk '{print $3}')
    cp -r "$VOLUME/"*.app /Applications/
    diskutil unmount "$VOLUME"
done

to be ran in the directory of the dmg files.
