When installing a game such as Descent II, it's not reading the amount of free space correctly. No matter how much space I actually have, it always shows 105MB:

Is there a way around this? I'd love to be able to have it copy everything to the hard drive and not rely on the CD at all.

Read the README? Look for "freespace"
