Re: gEDA-user: cdrom install question

[sdb@xxxxxxxxxx (Stuart Brorson)]

Hmmmmm. . .  What directory are you sitting in?  If you are sitting in
/mnt/cdrom0, then the problem is that the installer wants to write a
log file onto the CD ROM, which it can't

Please cd into a directory where you have write permission.  Then run
the installer from there.  For example:

cd /tmp
/mnt/cdrom0/installer.exe --log --verbose

If you've already done that, then we have a different problem to
solve. . . .
