So I've been able to get to where it's installing, and it tells me to 'mount the Unreal Tournament 2004 CDROM', and I'm running the DVDROM edition. The thing couldn't get any more mounted than it already is. Any suggestions?

That was funny...
Can you elaborate a bit?
There is an installer file on the DVD to install it on Linux, did you run that and are getting that error?
Once you put in the cd it should have auto mounted... you should be able to change to that directory and run the linux-install.sh file from a terminal window...

The problem with the linux install script for ut2004 is that it's for the multi-CD version that has like 10 discs to go through. It's not compatible with the DVD version nor is it even included in it.
The only alternative I can think of is trying to copy the folders manually then making the 'cdkey'/'ut2004key' file or so (don't remember the name) in the System folder with your CD-KEY to start. I never tried this method myself though so I can not guarantee success.

Hope this help...

I am pretty sure I used the 64bit instructions there and I have the DVD edition.

I've always done it this way: http://utforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=558146
Though I do have the Anthology version. The easiest way to install it is to copy the directories over, run the 3369 linux patch and then manually create the CDkey file and install any dependencies. You may have some trouble with permissions. I think I had to chown the whole UT2004 directory in order to get it working. Obviously don't run the game as root.
I apologize for the lack of information. Inserted the DVD, it auto-mounted to /media/UT2004_DVD. Opened up a terminal, typed cd /media/UT2004_DVD && sudo sh linux-installer.sh and the installer ran without a hitch. Entered the CD Key and I get to the error described above. I did notice that there were seperate folders for each CD should I have had that version, I will try the suggestion above. The link provided by racerraul was tried after I couldn't get it to work the first time through. (I came up with the same error, and found that tutorial thinking I had missed a step or something). Even by following that step by step, it still gave me the same error. Yes, libstdc is installed and up-to-date.
Thanks all.
Did you ever get this to work? I am having the same issues. I have the DVD It has the installer on disc. I can go through the installation to the point were it asks to mount cd2. Very freak'n frustrating!
You need to use a specific version libstdc. libstdc++5; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1243005 if you're using 9.10
