Summary: Blade Runner does not install. Product: Wine Version: 1.3.2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: apmetcalfe@yahoo.ie
I have the 4 cd version of the computer game blade runner. I could begin the installation on with the first cd, but when prompted for the second cd, the second cd would not mount (wine eject also did not work).
The game can still be installed with the following workaround:
Step 1: Copy the contents of each cd into separate folders on your computer.
Step 2: In each folder create the files ".windows-label" and ".windows-serial".
Step 3: In each ".windows-label" place the label of the cd, and in each ".windows-serial" place the serial. These can be found by placing the original cd's into your computer, opening the "Drives" tab in "winecfg", highlighting your cdrom drive and clicking on "Advanced". In my case they were as follows: Label:BLADE_1 Serial:4B0CBE77 Label:BLADE_2 Serial:27F3C001 Label:BLADE_3 Serial:C8F1AFEF Label:BLADE_4 Serial:E9261E6
Step 4: Create a new folder, lets call it "Install", open up the "Drives" tab in "winecfg", and set this folder as a new drive. Click on "Advanced" and make sure "CD-ROM" is checked, not "Autodetect".
Step 5: Copy the contents of the first cd into the "Install" folder, including the ".windows-label" and ".windows-serial" files.
Step 6: Start the installation from the "Install" folder.
Step 7: When prompted for the second cd, move the contents of the first cd out of the "Install" folder, and move the contents of the second cd in.
Step 8: Continue with the installation.
Step 9: Repeat with cd's 3 and 4.
Step 10: Enjoy the game :).

--- Comment #1 from Olof Englund realdiskdoc@gmail.com 2012-03-12 16:51:59 CDT --- Installed Blade Runner just fine with Ubuntu Oneiric + Wine 1.4 rc6. "wine eject" between CD:s worked like a dream!
However, I can't get the game to run..just crashes before it even starts, forcing me to switch to console and kill it.
