mounted the dvd with

mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom1 /mnt/dvd

then

emerge ut2004

and everything started just fine. But then the install finished with the

Copying files from Disk 3...

and then it asks for cd 4 I can find it in another terminal so the files are there but it cant find them.


Any clues?

Ok So I tried copying the directories CD4 CD5 CD6 and CD7 to a nice cache spot on a separate internal IDE hard drive and then exporting their locations:

cp -R /mnt/dvd/CD4 /space/CD4 #and so on for 5,6, and 7

then

export CD_ROOT_4="/space/CD4/" #and so on for 5,6, and 7

and it still fails at the point where it should start copying CD4 files. I am really clueless here. (15gigs available on destination drive so not space prob).

Okay So I copied CD1,2 and 3 over as well to cache spot and:

export CD_ROOT=/space

mkdir /space/CD4/Music #it seems this is why it was hanging (but am I missing some tunes?)

and the emerge is finally going thru. But am I missing some music files? I am using the DVD from the Editor's Choice Edition and there is no Music directory in the original CD4 directory on the DVD. Is this a mistake in the sh script or in portage?

The Editor's Choice DVD is not the one used to make the ebuild. It expects the files to be in the position from the original UT2004 CD/DVD discs. I guess I'm going to have to figure something else out to get it working for both sets of discs. What pisses me off is they rearranged everything.

Why in the fsck did they do that and not just add the new content on a new disc like any sensible person would do?

Anyway, my suggestion is to just try to work around the problems. You may or may not end up missing music or whatever. I don't have an ECE DVD, so I can't test it myself.

Honestly, I think you should file a bug and assign it to the games team (games@gentoo.org) along with an attachment of the ls -lR from the mounted DVD.

It looks like thanks to Epic, I'm going to be hacking up all the ut2004 ebuilds and making new versions to support the multiple formats the game has been released under.

Sorry bout the mess. I did get mine working, but upon reading that portage will try and do this monstrous install every time I update gave me second thoughts. I think I am going to back to the installer included with epic for now. But I would be very happy to mail ls -lR lists to anyone who needs it. When using portage to install do you receive any optimization benefits?

Had the same problem. I got it to work by making sure my CD4 and CD5 directories both had a copy of the music directory. Of course I had to copy the dvd contents to hard drive first.

I modified the ebuild to work. Seems to work fine now. The ebuild actually has
Code:

DESCRIPTION="Unreal Tournament 2004 - Editor's Choice Edition"

which seems to contridict what wolf31o2 said "The Editor's Choice DVD is not the one used to make the ebuild." Don't know?

All I did was change this line
Code:

cp -r ${CDROM_ROOT}/${DISK4}/{Music,StaticMeshes,Textures} ${Ddir} \

to this
Code:

cp -r ${CDROM_ROOT}/${DISK4}/{StaticMeshes,Textures} ${Ddir} \


You can download the ebuild here.

Some asshole's always gotta try to ski uphill... :wink:

Well, I made the ebuild myself using my DVD< which was purchased before the Editor's Choice Edition ever was released, so yeah, I'm pretty sure. It says that it is the ECE because it downloads the ECE package and installs it.

Anyway, if someone would take my advice earlier and file a bug on this, along with a post of ls -lR from the mounted DVD, then I can work on fixing it, otherwise, I cannot.

All right sorry about the slowness in actually getting a bugzilla account. But there is a bug #78444 with attachment #48798

And here's the link:

Thanks Wolf!

Why don't you just build two ebuilds, one for normal CD/DVD and one for ece. Think the users would know which one to pick.
