Alright, so I've been looking around and I can't seem to find a thread on just this topic,
so I'll give it a try and forgive me if I've overlooked something.
I'm fairly new to Ubuntu, just started using it a month ago.
I'm completely in love, and I've no idea why I ever used Windows for anything but gaming.
Well, I've encountered a problem here though.
I decided to replay the good old Arcanum and downloaded it in .mdf.
As I'm new to Ubuntu and have always used Daemon Tools on Windows I didn't know it was a problem, but apparently they can't be mounted, or they can but the content can't be shown, etc.
I hate asking for help without trying our good friend Google, but I've been on this impossible quest since yesterday and I want it solved now.
I've tried several things now but I can't get it to work.
I'm not in the sudo list since my man (it's his laptop) thought I'm too much of a nub to be allowed to mess around with things, which is understandable, so I have to use his account every time I need to make a 'major' change to anything.
This makes it just that more complicated.
Anyway. I tried converting the .mdf to .iso which was possible, but the installation gave me this 'Installation ended prematurely because of an error', now I suspect it's due to the copy protection which Acetone and most others don't bypass, not on these DVD's anyway.
Now what you've probably already guessed, is that I need help with this.
I could of course just download .iso's but why not take up the challenge, it's the only way to learn.
I don't know what kind of info would be needed for this, but I'd really like some help here.
I need help to either convert and bypass the copy protection, or simply help on how to make .mdf's work.
Fanks in advance.
