similar to: Make WINE detect an image as a CD drive with an audio disc

Sometimes working in this field can drive you pretty nuts. Issues like this one are an example. A seemingly little detail (loopback mounter only mounting single file system) can have your wheels spinning for days. Time lost is money lost if you ask me. Some days I have so many of these issues that I wish I could just go back into the Marine Corps, take face full of oleoresin capsicum

I prefer to run games that require CDs from image files, since it is faster and protects the life of my CDs. In windows, I would just mount the disc image and I could then play. But using Wine and Ubuntu, it appears to work differently. When installing a Windows CD using WINE under Ubuntu 8.10 64 bit, how should I go about mounting a disc image so it is seen by games running under WINE as a CD?

Hi, I'm trying to build a bootable MSDOS disk and put it on a ISO with floppy and hard disk emulation. I want to use commonly available Linux tools like dd, losetup, mkdosfs, memdisk etc. I have done the following: 1. dd if=/dev/zero of=myImage bs=1M count=50 [ Builds a 52MB image ] 2. losetup /dev/loop0 myImage [Links /dev/loop0 to myImage file ] 3. vi /grub/stage1; %!xxd; [ NULL the partion

The "Command & Conquer 3" dvd fails to automount when you insert it, and is not recognized as a UDF image by /bin/file, but is recognized as a UDF image by mount. To reproduce: insert "Command & Conquer 3" dvd. Observe that gnome does not automount. Look in /var/log/messages, notice line like Jun 27 15:03:13 dank kernel: [ 470.600493] Unable to identify CD-ROM

Hi all, I have trouble with making the symbolic link to the corresponding device node.

I just installed Wine into Ubuntu 10.4, from Ubuntu's Software Center (the installation instructions at WineHQ didn't work). I've tried installing a couple of Windows programs from CD (a set of clip art images from Nova Development Corp, and Willmaker Plus from Intuit). Every executable I've tried generates the following standard error message: Archive:

Hi, I managed to install BG II (following some posts at http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=408), with some difficulty. I eventually copied all the files from all four disks into a single directory, and the install then proceeded smoothly. Now, the launch screen comes up fine, but when I select play, it fails with a windows-style error box claiming: "We cannot

I've got a 5-disk CD-ROM changer that I'd like to access via Samba v2.0.4 on my Linux (RedHat v6.0) system. I already have Samba up and running well, but I haven't had to deal with the CD changer until now. The kicker, of course, is while there's 5 disks, there's only 1 read mechanism. That means that the accessing of any given disk may mean first selecting that disk to be

I have tried a few rtimes now to install Abobe PS7 (not a crack) on the latest Linux Mint and now on Ubuntu 8.10 64bit. I am having the same problem in both. Is it because my new comp is a 64bit? An error occurred while loading the archive. [/media/cdrom0/Autoplay.exe] End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part

Hello, I'm trying to install The Rosetta Stone v2.08 (language learning software) on a Debian Squeeze (w/ linux 2.6.28-2~snapshot.12850 for my wireless card) using wine 1.1.18. Running the autorun.exe (with ALSA as audio driver in winecfg) starts on working well, asking me what language the install should be in, and then allowing me to click on "Run installer". At that point,

I'm trying to use a shareware program called PowerISO to extract a .daa cd image to a raw iso9660 format so that I can view the contents.

So I deleted d: & d:: and made new symbolic links $ sudo rm -r /home/me/.wine/dosdevices/d* $ ln -s /media/DATA
