--- Comment #7 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2010-12-20 17:17:04 CST --- For me, the demo installs fine, no problems.
The full version, fails. If I install from dvd, running with 'wine /mnt/cdrom/setup.exe' I get error (I believe it was 1603). If I use an iso and run with 'wine D:\setup.exe' it works up until it asks for the second disk, then when I mount that iso (using wisotool) it never sees the disk, it always asks to retry. The same occurs when using the real dvds.
As a workaround, copying the files from both dvds into a folder and running setup.exe from there seems to work decently well. The game still prompts for the second disk towards the end, but wineserver -k'ing it shows a relatively complete installation. I have to install msxml4 sp2 manually, apparently ours isn't good enough (that needs a new bug).
The copying files methods gives me an install that's 14 GB. If I install from ISOs or manually with only the first disk, the install is 7GB. Trying to run the 7 GB install fails with an error saying the install is incomplete, whereas the 14GB install works.
So, for me at least, there are two bugs: 1) The installer's disk check fails for disk 2, whether using a real disk or iso. 2) Installer sometimes fails, with different errors (1603, 1628, 1608, etc.).
