Installing WoW
Depending on if your using CD's or DVD's there are 2 different mounting procedures for each disk you have.
If the installation disk is a CD
Code:
sudo umount /media/cdrom0
Code:
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom0 -t iso9660 -o ro,user,unhide,uid=`id -u`
If the installation disk is a DVD
Code:
sudo umount /media/cdrom0
Code:
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom -t udf -o ro,user,unhide,uid=`id -u`
Every time you switch your disks out, you must un-mount then re-mount them with the appropriate command. This ensures all hidden files on the disk that are necessary to install are available for the installer.exe
