83mercedes Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 I just bought Unreal Tournament 2003, after having read thru some of the posts here, I see that it has a Linux installer on CD3. I had to copy that installer to my hard drive in order to get it to work. Now, it opens the installer, lets me set the install path, then asks for the "play CD" to be mounted, but no matter what I do here, it doesn't see the "play CD" (which I'm guessing is CD #1). So I have to abort the install. Please HELP!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razor Posted October 29, 2002 Report Share Posted October 29, 2002 You start out with CD number three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83mercedes Posted October 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 I don't think so. I already copied the install.sh to my hard drive, cuz it won't run off the cd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzylizard Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 If you go to www.linuxworld.com they have a review of UT2003 right now. It outlines the problems, and correct procedure, with installing UT2003. It also has some links to websites that offer help and further directions for the install.

83mercedes Posted October 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Thanks, I got it installed ,by basically inserting a floppy into the floppy drive. I guess it doesn't matter, any old floppy will do... The rest of the install went well then, it asked for the wrong CDs,(ie: asked for CD1, but really wanted CD2, etc) but once I figured that out, it was OK. It finished up the install and runs fine, thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidzoo Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 I was having the same problem with it whining about failing to mount a floppy during the install. My solution to fix it was to turn supermount on for just the floppy drive (done in MDK Control Center) after that, no more complaining from the installer. Just my experience, yours may vary.

fuzzylizard Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Glad you got it running. So what do you think? How does it run under Linux? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83mercedes Posted October 30, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 As far as I can tell, it runs better than under XP. Seems a little smoother. I can't seem to get the fps to work, though. Is it 'stat fps' you type? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
