I'm having trouble installing a program from the CDROM / DVD drive. I've checked to see that the mapping of the d: drive is correctly pointing to the right place - it is: ~/.wine/dosdevices$ ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 cosmo cosmo 10 2009-10-04 18:46 c: -> ../drive_c lrwxrwxrwx 1 cosmo cosmo 13 2010-08-12 20:19 d: -> /media/cdrom0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 cosmo cosmo 8 2010-07-25 19:12 d:: -> /dev/sr0 I run the install program, it runs from the DVD as expected: ~/.wine/dosdevices$ wine start d:\Komplete\ 6\ Setup\ PC.exe However, after answering the setup questions (storage directories, etc - I don't change anything, I just accept the defaults), once it gets to the point of actually installing the software, a pop-up alert says "Disk Not Found", "Please insert Komplete 6". The disk it is asking for is the same one I've run the installation program from, so I don't understand why it can't see those files. It's obviously seeing the DVD since it's running the installation program from it... Any ideas?? Thanks much for any help...Cosmo

Martin & James:
Thanks for your responses guys. Unfortunately, neither solution fixed the
problem. I tried both of them, but still got the identical problem.
Oddly, when I actually clicked to begin the installation, the DVD drive spun up,
but then the pop-up message again indicates "Disk Not Found"....
HOWEVER, I think I may have found the source of the problem. In checking things
out on an actual Win XP box I noticed something VERY odd. When
I explored the DVD with XP, the DVD appears to have 8 hidden folders which do
not show up in Linux. Even running `ls -lai` the additional
directories don't appear. When I viewed the DVD with the graphical Nautilus
file browser the directories were also not revealed, even though I had the
"Show hidden files" option engaged.

Might this mean that WINE is not showing the files to the installer program? If
Linux can't see the directories, I'm assuming WINE can't see them
either.
Any idea what is going on here?? How do I get Linux to see the files so that
WINE can show them as well?? Thanks...

Thanks dimesio for the link - that was indeed the issue - the DVD needed to be mounted with the "norock" option!>http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=5912>Most likely incorrectly mastered CD or even worse - intentionally broken (for any platform using/supporting Rock Ridge extension).>Try mounting with 'norock' option.For some reason - I still don't understand exactly why - the subdirectories were not visible when Ubuntu mounted the DVD. Ubuntu automatically mounted the DVD as a udf file system. $ mount ... /dev/sr0 on /media/cdrom0 type udf (ro,nosuid,nodev,utf8,user=cosmo) However, on Ubuntu at least, the udf file system does not support the "norock" option. I had to unmount the DVD then re-mount as an iso9660 file system which does support "norock" on Ubuntu. $ sudo mount -t iso9660 -o norock /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom FYI for anybody else: this was a multi-DVD install, so I ran the install program from a directory outside of the DVD file system so that I could unmount the current install DVD and swap in another. Each time the installation asked for a new DVD I unmounted the current DVD, inserted the next installation DVD, which then got auto-mounted by Ubuntu, again as a "udf" file system. I again unmounted the DVD, then re-mounted as "iso9660" file system with the previously mentioned command line, before clicking to proceed from the installation program. I'm sure there is a more efficient way to do this, but that's how I did it.

I had the same problem with Komplete 6 on Ubuntu 8.10. It turns out the DVD is being mounted as UDF but must be mounted as ISO9660 to work. This is how I made it work: 1. Make sure the first DVD is in the drive 2. Open a terminal and become root 3. umount /media/cdrom0 4. mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 5. Close the root shell 5. Try launching the installer now The DVD should now be mounted as ISO9660. If this doesn't work then go verify the device /dev/scd0 and mount point /media/cdrom0 are correct. On your computer the logical device numbering may be different.
