When I try to install World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King; the installation fails because it is unable to remount the disk. If I try to mount the disk, I get an error saying that the disk does not exist when I had no problem installing WoW on Ubuntu before downloading a bunch of updates. Crossover unmounts the disk successfully so I am sure I have the right disk drive. Here is my fail log:
<P>The installation of World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King failed.</P>
EDIT:Just wanted to say that I am on the trial of crossover so that is why I can't do like the stickied post suggest. and create a support ticket.

The WoW DVD contains hidden files that need to be visible for Crossover to perform the install.
Unmount the DVD with: sudo umount /media/cdrom0
Remount the DVD: sudo mount -t udf -o ro,unhide /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom0
For Wrath of the Lich King you may also need to 'allow' your specific user id.
First, find out what your user id is (put 'id -u' in the terminal and find the numeric value),
Unmount the DVD with: sudo umount /media/cdrom0
Remount the DVD with: sudo mount -t udf -o ro,unhide,uid=(number) /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom0
PS, you can always send an eimal to info@codeweavers.com if you still have problems getting started (it'll get an answer faster than the forums usually).
