I recently migrated to Fedora Core 6 and have been having a strange problem installing KotOR II. The install opens in WINE with no problems, and gets through the first 3 disks just fine, but on disk four the process comes to an abrupt halt. It doesn't crash, it just moves a single file every couple seconds. Anyone got any ideas?

 

And yes, me == , I know.

It did something similar in windows where it refused disk four. Try uninstalling the game, cleaning the disks and your CD drive and starting again. That worked for me, ok different systems but *shrugs* might work if the problem is with the disk not the computer.

I never know the Linux is similiar to Windows...Or is it?

Linux can have a similar graphical interface as Windows - hubby uses it on some of his computers and it looks like Windows with bigger & uglier icons. Whether it behaves like Windows for installing games I have no clue...I kind of doubt it.

I hope it all works out for you. I never had any problems with Disc 4. Both KOTOR games must be big games if they always require four discs for installation. And I thought The Sims 2 was big.

They're not similar at all. However, using utilities like WINE or Cedega you can make programs think you're running Windows. It's sort of like using DOSBox to run DOS programs in Windows XP.
