Hello,
I installed Star Wars : The Force Unleashed with .iso but i have the real DVD.
The problem when i install the game thanks to the DVD, i can't eject the first DVD when the installation ask me to insert the second.
I add /media/cdrom in winecfg but i have always the problem. When i launch "wine eject d:" in a console, i have an error message told me :
The device is busy...
I don't know how to resolve this problem. I have Debian Squeeze and Wine 1.1.36.
Thanks for your help.

You didn't 'cd' into '/media/cdrom' by any chance before starting the installer?
i did "cd /media/cdrom" and "wine setup.exe"

That's the problem - you shouldn't cd into DVD mount point - shell will keep it open and Wine won't be able to do anything about it.
You should start installer this way instead:
Code:
cd ~
wine start /media/cdrom/setup.exe
Thanks vitamin,
but, which differences there is between :
Code:
cd ~
wine start /media/cdrom/setup.exe
and
Code:
cd ~
wine /media/cdrom/setup.exe
but, which differences there is between :
Code:
cd ~
wine start /media/cdrom/setup.exe
and
Code:
cd ~
wine /media/cdrom/setup.exe
Edit :
When i launch this command :
Code:
wine start /media/cdrom/setup.exe
I have this error message in the console :
err:start:wmain Option 'L"/cdrom/setup.exe"' not recognized
When i launch this command :
Code:
wine start /media/cdrom/setup.exe
I have this error message in the console :
err:start:wmain Option 'L"/cdrom/setup.exe"' not recognized

then add "/U" after start:
Code:
wine start /U /media/cdrom/setup.exe
It really needs to be /unix
wine start /unix /media/cdrom/setup.exe
We don't accept /u in case Microsoft adds their own /u switch to start.exe.

Vitamin, how could you forget that many Windows utilities use slashes
instead of dashes for options?
In any case, you really need to pass a Wine path (not a UNIX path) to
the start utility. Try:
wine start 'D:\setup.exe'
and replace 'D' with the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the /Unix option.

If i understand, there are two option to launch "wine start".
With Unix option :
wine start /U /media/cdrom/setup.exe
Or without but with a Windows path,
wine start D:/setup.exe.
If i use the Unix option, i must add my cdrom drive in winecfg or only without /U ?
Thanks

You should never have to add your cdrom drive in winecfg. It should be
added automatically.
> wine start /U /media/cdrom/setup.exe
You really need to type out /unix
added automatically.
> wine start /U /media/cdrom/setup.exe
You really need to type out /unix
Hum,
I use wine start /unix /media/cdrom1/setup.exe to install Fear 2 : Project Origin.
Impossible to eject the first DVD, i have this error message :
Code:
umount: /media/cdrom1: device is busy.
(In some cases useful info about processes that use
the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))
I don't understand....

Either way, Wine has to be able to see the drive. Which means you have
to add your CD-ROM drive in winecfg.
Oh, and the /Unix option has to be spelled in full, as someone has
already mentioned.

Using the windows drive letter is the the way I recommend. For good reasons sometimes the Unix path item picks the wrong drive ie Z: instead of cdrom and screws it up.
