i'm not through with you Satinet---and i hardly ever lie....
i present,smokey the cat! http://www.jwweir.com/smokey moniter.jpg

i presume it's running now then?

hope the moggy doesnt overheat the monitor! lol

actually no! that's an old pic from windowz.

i tried installing and got stuck at the "chmod 755 ut-install-436-GOTY.run" part! when i put that line in the terminal, it showed some code then went crazy with garbage symbols like what a sound file looks like,but ya can't hear. QUESTION: do i need to pre-make the usr/games/ut file and THEN save the link target as "ut-install-436-GOTY.run" INTO that folder? Before i continue this install?

To Install UT GOTY under Debian Testing in bash:

a) Select /usr/games/ut for install path
b) Select /usr/bin for link path
c) Insert CD 1 of 2 into your CD-Rom Drive
d) Hit the 'Begin Install' button
e) Follow the on screen instructions
f) Exit when complete
6) apt-get install umodpack
7) make sure all umod packs are downloaded
8) xumod
a) Unreal /usr/games/ut
b) Extract to .
c) Hit OK
c) Hit OK to create Manifest
d) File -> Open each of the BonusPacks (Control-o)
e) umod -> Install each of the Tabbed Entries (Control-i)
f) File -> Quit
9) Control-d to logout of root shell
10) /usr/bin/ut

has anyone found a way around the mounting issue? when I use the linux install script, It loads, I enter my key, it installs off of disc one but then it asks for disc two. I can't find anyway to switch my discs. I've umount /dev/hdc, switch discs, mount /dev/hdc/. It doesn't regester the second disc when I switch them. Any ideas?

Erm I thought you were installing UT2004? UT 436 is UT99

hmmmm, Satinet gave me that link. that does look like the patch number for ut99 is there another one that pertains to 2004?

OR---
can i install ut99 also? (i play both)

sorry,

i was just trying to help....

sure you can't google it?? i like lenny, would like to help but dont have UT.

well, as usual i'm not paying attention. but, i will need this install when i get to installing UT 99.....so, all is not lost Satinet.

i may have to go back to the Mepis (wiki) 2004 install that didn't work before(this latest re-install anyway). stay tuna--fish!

You can use that to install Ut99 (I have and works fine). For UT2k4 I thought that the install script was included on the cd/dvd?

*Edit: just checked my dvd and there is a linux-installer.sh

yes, i was under the impression an installer existed on the cd. and it was just a case of running it and stroking that pussy (no pun intended!)

yeoooow

you posted the pic not me. i'm a cat lover. but i got a flat panel, so no cat on top of that.

yea, i keep waiting for mine to blow so i can get a flattie! but the problem with a flattie is i'll need a skinnier cat......

update: Installed UT2004 doing using this...
