--- Comment #6 from Hugh Perkins hughperkins@gmail.com 2009-08-07 20:50:22 --- Ok, so I got a different error this time, "Install failed! Unable to find install\revision.gpf". I've seen that error before; I felt at the time maybe it was because I was using a path that was too long?
Let's go through my actions in detail: - I used cdemu to load ta cd1 in a virtual drive (simply because it mounts the cd as /media/TOTAL ANNIL rather than if I mount it by hand it ends up in /cdom) - I ran WINEPREFIX=/tmp/junk/ta winecfg , and checked the letter of the cd drive (D:) - I tried running WINEPREFIX=/tmp/junk/ta wine D:\SETUP.EXE , but it crashed with a page fault at address 0x7bc4442e (thread 0009) - So, in the spirit of making it easy for people to follow instructions I might write later, I ran the setup from winefile:
- WINEPREFIX=/tmp/junk/ta winefile - in winefile, changed into D: - double-clicked on 'SETUP.EXE' - setup launched just fine - I clicked on 'regular install' - the installation ran until the message 'unable to find install\revision.gpf'
Where is install\revision.gpf? Looking at the contents of the cd, it is at 'D:\Install\revision.gpf', with an upper-case 'I'. Maybe it's looking for 'install' and not finding 'Install'?
By the way I had a look for readme.txt. There is a 'README.txt', with uppercase README, lowercase txt, at D:\README.txt, ie in the root of the cd. There is no readme.txt at all, in whatever upper/lower case, in the ta installation target directory itself.
Maybe it's something to do with upper/lower case?
