Use the "Cocoa" installer isntead.
Download the Offline installer: Flash Player (Mac OS X) and mount the DMG.
When you get to this point:
Right click the installer and choose "Show Package Contents".
In Contents/Resources, you'll find the Adobe Flash Player.pkg
Double click it and install that way.
