multiple iso + install problem
multiple iso + install problem
Hi,
I have got a program in 2 iso images on my HDD (ripped from archive DVD and both of these are CD images) and haven't got any CD-s.
When I mount the first iso, I can run setup.exe with wine. But only the first one. When installer asks the other one into the cdrom drive, never opens.
I tried to mount it to normal and virtual cdrom also, but not solved. There is a single way, I think, but I didn't found.
Can somebody help?
Regards:

there is at least a work-around. Two methods:
method 1: you have a Volume manager running (GNOME or KDE)
open a terminal and force unmounting the first ISO, then mount the next in the same directory. Wine will notice this, though you will still see the Icon and name of the first ISO on your desktop. Do the same for all following ISOs, but do not forget to re-mount the first ISO when you quit Wine.
method 2: divert your optical drive to several entries in WineCFG's "Drives" tab and use another "drive" for each ISO.
Hope this helps, ReKuli

Thanks for answers, but tried before I ask and doesn't work of course. I didn't wrote complete method I used, this is my mistake.vitamin wrote:http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-dc33f7e ... ebb1f024f7win3storm wrote:When installer asks the other one into the cdrom drive, never opens.
sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 program1.iso /media/iso
mounted
wine /media/iso/setup.exe
lots of errors, triing again automatically and:
started and stopped when program2.iso was needed
wine eject e: //e: drive is /media/iso in winecfg->drives tab
cannot open device for drive e:
I couldn't resolve.
Re: multiple iso + install problem
Why don't you simply mount both isos at the start? Configure them as separate cd-rom drives in winecfg.win3storm wrote:Thanks for answers, but tried before I ask and doesn't work of course.

If i understand, you have 2 DVD and you can't eject the first DVD when the installation ask you to insert the Second DVD?
Use this command to resolve the problem :
With this command, you can eject the first DVD.

Use this command to resolve the problem :
Code: Select all
wine start /unix /media/cdrom/Setup.exe

Not exactly. The installer was in mdf files and I converted to iso. I cannot use wine eject e: (e: is /media/iso and configured as CD-ROM) now, because doesn't work (never did).Berillions wrote:If i understand, you have 2 DVD and you can't eject the first DVD when the installation ask you to insert the Second DVD?

I start the setup.exe in first iso and it asks the second one.
wine eject e: // doesn't work any way
umount -l -f /media/iso // works fine
mount -t iso9660 cd2.iso /media/iso -o loop // works fine, all data in rigth path, but...
setup.exe can't continue, waits for cd2

Ok, i use this command when i installed Mass Effect (iso DVD) and Mass Effect 2 (DVD version) and it works fine.
Mass Effect :
When the Installation ask me the second DVD :
Which game do you want to install?
When the installation ask you to insert the 2nd DVD, have you got a windows with this question?
Mass Effect :
Code: Select all
mount -o loop MEDVD1.iso /media/cdrom
wine start /unix /media/cdrom/Setup.exe
Code: Select all
umount /media/cdrom
mount -o loop MEDVD2.iso /media/cdrom
When the installation ask you to insert the 2nd DVD, have you got a windows with this question?
Have you tried mounting BOTH isos at the start, and configuring them as separate cd-roms in winecfg?gr4fimaci wrote:

Of course. The installer cannot use separate drive. I tried lots of ways but result was the same: "Please insert cd2..."dimesio wrote:Have you tried mounting BOTH isos at the start, and configuring them as separate cd-roms in winecfg?gr4fimaci wrote:

Using /media/cdrom0 instead of /media/iso is the same. The installer asks the second disk. Never seen other error/warning message in Window or command line - if You mean.
new error message found
When I unmounted cd1:
Tried a switch (-u) and get a message:
This will be the one. Does somebody know, how to solve?[/code]
Code: Select all
sudo umount -l -f /media/iso
Code: Select all
wine eject -u e:

Re: new error message found
You run 'wine eject' first. And make sure e: is really mapped to /media/iso in winecfg.gr4fimaci wrote:wine eject -u e:Code: Select all

You can directly mount MDF with fuseiso, I believe. If some important data was lost when converting to ISO at least you still have that data in the original image.gr4fimaci wrote:Not exactly.
