Hi!
I'm trying to run my GTA under Gentoo Linux with DOSBOX 0.70
The problem is: Program says there aren't CD, but there is. I do "sudo mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom" in xterm ( I have original CD) and then mount D: /mnt/cdrom -t cdrom in dosbox.
Has anybody Idea what could i do?

It doesn't work. I make image with dd and load, everything ok but GTA still doesn't see it 😒

So mr. L++

Would you please explain to us how you used dd to make a BIN/CUE image as DosFreak suggested?

$dd if=/dev/hdc of=gta.iso

It's quite simple 😉

Simple .... and wrong. dd can't make BIN/CUE images.

shit, I'm blind.
The one probem is how to make cue, it seems to be needed. When i mount bin there's no change. I tried use this toc as cue, but there were problems with mounting. Do you thing that bad condition of CD could be a reason of those problems?
