New advancements!

I fiddled around with changing CD's and realized the following:

1. Load disc 1 (cdemu or physical)
2. Open disc in nautilus
2.1 Notice there are content on the cd
3. Unload disc 1 and load disc 2
4. Open disc in nautilus
4.1. Notice there is new content (as it should be)

NOW! If I change discs while the installer is running, there is no content
presented on the second disc!

1. Load disc 1
2. Open disc in nautilus (effectively mount it)
3. Launch the installer on disc 1 in Wine
4. Go through the installer until the error pops up
5. Unload disc 1 and load disc 2
6. Open the disc in nautilus
6.1 Notice there is NO content on the disc!


I found a way around this from experiences with other multi-CD programs, and
that is to first eject the cd in wine and then swap the discs. Effectively:

1. Load disc 1
2. Open in nautilus
3. Launch installer in Wine
4. Go through installer until error pops up
5. Open a wineconsole in the prefix and perform "eject <driveletter>:" for the
disc
6. Unmount/Unload the disc in cdemu/cd-drive and load disc 2
7. Open disc in nautilus
7.1. Notice there ARE content there now!
8. Click "Retry" in the installer
9. The installer finishes the installation "without error"


Sorry for the long post and also sorry for not testing this prior, but the
error code threw me off as not being the usual/expected "please insert disc 2"
and also I had not thought of checking that disc 2 had any content on it after
loading it during the installer.

Thanks for all the help on the matter!
