try with an automounter.

The problem occurs when performing a multidisk installation under Wine from the home directory:
winex /cdrom/setup.exe
and the request "Insert CD#2" is made: how to respond to this? The drawer won't open, so from the console I can try and unmount the CD using variations on <umount>, <eject> or <fuser>, but the basic difficulty is that there are processes using the cdrom device, and these have to be neutralized before the cd can be ejected. There are about 6 processes being run by Wine. Unfortunately the install program is one of these and it dies as well...
I have experienced this problem mainly with games, but it probably applies to multi-cd utilities as well... Specifically I have been unable to install:
Blade Runner Indiana Jones & the Infernal Machine Discworld Noir
Could someone please explain what is going on? Why does it (cd changing) succeed under Windoze but not under Wine? Is there a fix (actual or planned) to this problem?
Thanks, Roger Young r.young@irl.cri.nz
