Has anyone got it installed under FreeBSD?
I got the demo to run and install pretty well (for some reason I can't play it 
in KDE, I have to drop back to twm otherwise my system hangs), but the full 
game doesn't install :(

I have tried both the DVD edition and the 6 CD version.. It doesn't appear to 
detect that I have mounted a new disk and so I can't get past installing the 
first disks worth of stuff.

I run the installer like so 
sudo /compat/linux/bin/sh /cdrom/linux-installer.sh

and pick /usr/local/ut2004 as the place to install it.

I have ktrace'd it and when I click 'Yes' on the CDROM prompt it only seems to 
try and open fstab and mtab. It ends up with a FreeBSD fstab 
and /compat/linux/etc/mtab which is a zero length file.

I've tried mounting the play disk on /cdrom and /mnt/cdrom, I have also tried 
mounting the DVD on there, and nullfs mounting each of the CD subdirectories 
onto both /cdrom and /mnt/cdrom but no change in behaviour.

I think I'll try copying the Windows install over and unpacking the Linux 
binaries and see how that goes :)
