similar to: Problem with changing disks in multiple CD's installation

I have been trying to install several games, and all of the ones that have more than one disk fail, one way or another, at the point of changing cd's. Some (doom3) just quit [there exists an alternative plan for doom3], and others (Baldur's Gate-SoA) lock up the cd and won't let go. The only way to get the cd out is to kill the installer. I found the instructions on WineHQ, which say

Hi. I've tried to find this solution and have not been successful. Never used wine before and am just getting into Linux. Opensuse 10.3. Wine is installed. Using Wine-door. I have an application that has 2 CD's. the first CD installs then asks for the 2nd CD. Unable to eject the first cd. Get error message media is busy and can't eject.

Hi all, I'm using wine 9.57 in ubuntu gutsy, I'm trying to install BGII but the installshield, when reaches about 78%, asks me for the cd2: I give the directory path and immediately it asks for cd 3,4,5. Naturally i can't provide cd 5 because BGII is a 4cds game. I've tried to upgrade installshield with no result. I've also tried to eject (wine eject) the directory with cd1 but

I have nexus - the juptiter indcident running an installer. I use the nexus wiki info on "wine eject". Nothing happens when I try to eject it. I have to use "eject -m" to force the cd drive to open. Now, it won't mount the next cd in line. Need help here.

I know there is whole page about Installshield, but I'm of a slow nature so I don't really know what to do when i get error: 1607 Instalshield scripting runtime Please explain in plain english Thanks

Am a newbee to Linux and am trying to evaluate various distros to see how they fit my needs. For this purpose I now have six trial Linux partitions on the same machine. My other criterions to replace XP as my main system have been passed by all the distros, but remains the last one: to be able to handle Lotus wk4-files. That is where I have my history. First tried installing Lotus 123 from

This patch series provides the facility to eject and insert a cdrom when the used device-model is qemu-xen. The only difference between both device-model is a call to a QMP command as `xl cd-insert ...` will still update xenstore, even if it''s not used by QEMU. Anthony PERARD (3): libxl_qmp, Introduce libxl__qmp_insert_cdrom. libxl_dm: Set an id to cdrom drives with qemuu. libxl:

Hey all, I am trying to install an old game through wine (Diablo 2 actually). The installation process has the user switch between 3 discs. A dialog box opens and says "please insert play disc" but when its in the drive and i click "ok" the same dialog opens again. I can click "ok" as many times as I like but the box just keeps asking for the disc even though its in

Greetings all. I have been running Wine under Kubuntu Feisty for about the last four months, keeping it updated with the latest wine releases on a weekly basis, I use it to run WordPerfect. Whilst WordPerfect didn't run flawlessly, I got it to work well enough to edit and save documents I work on at home. In four months none of the updates to Wine changed anything in how WordPerfect

At the moment I'm installing world of warcraft, which has 5 disks and the expansion which has another 4 disks. Now it works nicely, until the installation program asks me for disk 2. On windows it ejects automatically, but here it doesn't. It doesn't even eject when i try using the konsole command ( wine eject ). If I do that, the program says ( Cannot open device for drive e: ).

Since moving from FC2 to CentOS 4.x I've been having a strange problem opening the CD/DVD drive door after burning backups. A cron job tars and gzips directories I want to back up and stores the .tar.gz file in my /misc directory. I then burn the file onto a blank CD. All goes well with the burn...the drive door opens upon completion. The problem occurs when I re-insert the CD to test

Hi there! I'm a very confident wine user and totally pleasured except this issue: When trying to install a program requiring more then one cd (in this case Soldier of Fortune 2) the installer asks me to change the cd, but as linux requires to unmount cds before they can be ejected and unmounting is not possible even by -forcing it because of the program on the cd being in use. Is there any

Hi, I am trying to convert from esx server to local directory a VM names CSB, Its build from source 77b371b18b6a7ad37105a595931514f542a04396 When running: LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct ./run ./v2v/virt-v2v -ic "esx://root@10.35.5.45/?no_verify=1" -o local -of raw -os /tmp/v2v CSB I get the following: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ 0.0]

$ git checkout RELEASE-4.2.2 $ git clean -ffdx [do a build, install, reboot] $ xl create a0 $ xl cd-eject a0 hdc [However, the guest OS still sees the CD inserted] $ xl block-list a0 Segmentation fault $ xl cd-insert a0 hdc file:/images/xs-tools-6.0.0.iso Segmentation fault The problem seems to be that xl cd-eject is writing corrupt values to xenstore. Note that vbd/1/5632 is still there

Hi R Users, Thanks in advance. I am using R-2.5.1 on Windows XP. I am trying to call C code (testCX1.C) from R. testCX1.c calls another C code (funcC1.c) and returning a value to testCX1.c. I like to have this value in R. My steps are below: 1. R CMD SHLIB testCX1.c funcC1.c (at command propmt) 2. It creates testCX1.dll with warning (but testCX1.dll works):

Is there a way to get to get past the cga type centos 4 install screen where it says To begin testing the cd media etc etc...... and shows the OK or SKIP selections... ...and get to a "text shell command prompt" and *eject* the cd so I can reboot the machine from remote??? I have a remote console drac connection, yet for once we sent the hired guns home for the weekend and I am a

Hi! We're struggling to get device detaching to work reliably using Xen. We can reliably use the same code to manage devices using Libvirt+KVM without any problems. We've tested this on Xen with both CD-ROM and USB devices without success. See below for detailed descriptions. Thankful for any help! Regards, Daniel Espling --- For CD-ROM, we can mount them using attach-device but

I just got a Dell Dimension e521 (AMD 64 x2, nVidia MCP51 chipset) and so far it has been fine. Today I tried to burn some CD-R and DVD-R disks and have been able to do nothing but make coasters. The drive is a TSST TS-H653a (Samsung OEM) and does have the current firmware. Playing back data, audio, and video disks work just fine, but recording is a different matter. The drive shows up as

This is just a minor annoyance, but I wondered if anyone has any insights. When I first boot the system and log in to Gnome, and then plug in e.g. a USB stick or compact flash card, I get an icon for it on the desktop. I can right-click on this icon to "eject" the filesystem, etc. Eventually, though, for no obvious reason, this stops working and I no longer get an icon when I insert a

I have run into a few problems in getting applications to work with Kubuntu. I'm running Kubuntu 9.04 and Wine 1.1.23. If installing an application, I get errors during the process and the installation is aborted. If just running certain executables, the Wine Loader shows up in the task bar but the disappears after a few seconds without the application running. I was able to install Call
