I need to mount the UT2004 dvd I have so the update .run installer can install

[vectoravtech]

I havn't installed the UT2004 game yet, heres what I did.
1 downloaded ut2004_3369-english.midway.dvd-3.run from http://liflg.org/?catid=6&gameid=17.
2 made it executable in the properties.
3 tryed to install  and I got this message:

As you can see the dvd is opened on the bottom right side of the screen. I tryed installing the game first then the 3369 update <install> button is greyed out so I'm assuming it wants to do everything itself. That's why I reinstalled PCLinuxOS and I'm trying to install it from the 3369 update installer. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I tryed installing the update as executable after installing the game and I got this:

See, the install button is greyed out.

 Can't guarantee this is the problem, but I have run into issues like this a few times before. Apparently these Linux Installers look in the /mnt folder for cd/dvd drives, while ours mount in /media. If that is the case, the installer is looking in the wrong place for a mounted volume. Maybe someone more knowledgeable will drop in.

GreatEmerald from beyondunreal forum replyed to the post I made there with

Code: [Select]

sudo ln -s /media/YourCDName /mnt/TheExpectedCDPlaceAlso, this only works with the UT2004 Midway DVD, not Anthology.

So sudo ln -s /media/200811220500 /mnt/TheExpectedCDPlace but what's this? (TheExpectedCDPlace)

 I would guess it to be /cd or /dvd...

it looks like the dvd is mounted in one place or with one name while the installer expected it to be in another place or with another name

you will have to open the installer script and go over it to see what it expects, or you can wait for somebody else who also has the installer to go over it and tell you what exactly you need to do or if the script is not very long, you can post it here so that others and look at it and tell you what you need to do.
