OK, I have downloaded the demo (twice and from two different place) and I can't get it to install :(

 

When I try to run it as root I get:

 

Verifying archive integrity...OK

Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?

Took a chance and went out and bought the full game anyway. Turns out that this CD has the original Wolfenstein 3D on it as a bonus. I'm sure that this at least will run on my system. Hopefully RTCW will as well - but if it doesn't then it seems as good an excuse as any to buy a new computer! :D

Pfft. You can get it working. Ask on IRC or something. The icculus.org boys know all.
