Hey everybody,
This is kind of stupid problem, but I just can't seem to figure this one
out. I can't emerge UT2004. I set my CD_ROOT to my cdrom (/media/hdc) and
the first CD copies fine, but it never gives me time to umount and mount the
second CD. It simply tries (and thinks it has success) on the rest of the
CD's but I know that it just copied the data from CD1 six times.
This is the first time I have ever tried to install a game from CD on linux,
so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I use the DVD, so this is purely hypothetical, but what if you export
CD1_ROOT instead of CD_ROOT?
Actually looking at the ebuild I expect this not to work, but it
can't hurt to try.
The ebuild is confusing:
>> From ut2004-data-3186.ebuild
DISK1="CD1/"
DISK2="CD2/"
DISK3="CD3/"
DISK4="CD4/"
DISK5="CD5/"
DISK6="CD6/"
...
cp -r ${CDROM_ROOT}/${DISK1}{Animations,ForceFeedback,Help,KarmaData,Map
s,Sounds,Web} ${Ddir} || die "copying files"
<< end snippet
It looks as if it expects all that data to be copied into 6 paths
inside $CDROM_ROOT. I don't know anyone with 6 spare optical drives,
so I can't imagine they expected them to be mounted. But how else can
it be interpreted?
