Greetings:
I'm trying to get an old copy of Shattered Steel to work. The program installs just fine, and all the post install tests and stuff (like setting up the sound card) works. However, when I try to actually play, I get the message in the title. I see that Shattered Steel is supported from the compatibility page. But I have the same problem as the person which posted on that page.
I'm using Dosbox 0.74 in Debian Wheezy. I'll post my hardware specs if you think it will help, but I'm hoping it's not a hardware issue.
I've tried the following mount commands for the CDROM:
mount d /media/cdrom0 -t cdrom
mount d /media/cdrom0 -t cdrom -label SSTEEL
mount d /media/cdrom0 -t cdrom -usecd 0
mount d /media/cdrom0 -t cdrom -usecd 0 -label SSTEEL
mount d /media/cdrom0 -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl
mount d /media/cdrom0 -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl -label SSTEEL
The actual CDROM hardware is at /dev/sr0 . I also tried mounting everything straight to the hardware, substituting /dev/sr0 everywhere you see /media/cdrom0, but that never even let me see the files on the disk, so I'm thinking that's wrong.
Nothing seems to work - I always get the "Please insert Shattered Steel CD" message when I try to start play. What am I missing? 😕
TIA - Frank
P.S. First post here - hopefully this is the correct forum.
