ChessBase Light Manual Installation

There is a bug that prevents CrossOver from installing. The installation stops with the error "Cannot copy messages\english\texts.msg - Incorrect file checksum". To install ChessBase Light do the following:

1) Install cblight.exe on a real (or virtual) Windows machine.
2) Zip the c:\cblight directory.
3) Zip the following fonts in c:\windows\fonts:
fcc_____.ttf
fccb____.ttf
fccbi___.ttf
fcci____.ttf
ftc_____.ttf
ftcb____.ttf
ftcbi___.ttf
ftci____.ttf
4) Unzip them in your drive_c of your Windows 98 or XP bottle.
5) Create a shortcut to the executable c:\cblight\cblight.exe.
6) Keep these zipped files for future installations until this bug is sorted out.
