Two years ago I tried to install Myst on Kubuntu. Fifteen years ago the world was a different place

Now, I am installing it on Arch Linux.

Wine has improved since then, and so I have I.

#mount /dev/sr0 /media/cd
$wine /media/cd/install.exe

sorry about the size, wordpress won’t let me upload in its 1024×768 glory

…fuck it, I have an illegal WinXP virtual box for stuff like this. (Doesn’t everyone? It would be legal, but they didn’t send reinstall discs with the laptop. I’ve paid for Windows already…)

Oh, wait, apparently it’s out of date.
#pacman -Sy virtualbox virtualbox-additions
#/etc/rc.d/vboxdrv setup
#modprobe vboxdrv

I can hear the wind whistling in the trees in the first age.
Also, I’m pretty sure that I broke the XP install.

 

UPDATE:

The XP install is not broken.

I made a Windows 98 virtual machine.
