Q: The Install.html file tells me to look for a program calle installMapleLinuxSU, but there's no such program on the CD. Do I havethe wrong CD?
Answer
The Maple install CD is in ISO9660. If your Linux box is set up to automount, it'll probably mount the CD incorrectly as a FAT32 (PC) or possibly as a Mac (HFS) filesystem. When this happens, you can't "see" the files you need.
The fix for this is to manually mount the CD:
- umount the CD:
# umount /media/cdrecorder
(or the directory path on which it mounted. Use df -k to determine the mount point). - mount the CD:
# mount -o ro -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt
If you list /mnt, you should see a Linux subdirectory, this is where your install instructions (Install.html) are. Follow the directions in Install.html.
