Bug 73733 – doom3 won't wait to copy files from different cd's

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Benjamin Rich 2004-12-07 16:25:11 UTC]

When I do the following:

mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /media/cdrom
export CD_ROOT=/media/cdrom && emerge doom3

the doom3 installer will first copy files from Disc 1 (fine, that's what's in the drive), but will then start to copy files from Disc 2 and 3 a) *without* asking you to insert them and b) without having any problems with copying these files from the same disc. The install finishes thinking that it has copied all the files correctly, even though it's only copied files from Disc 1

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. insert disc 1, mount cdrom
2. export CD_ROOT
3. emerge doom3

Actual Results:  
Instead of asking you to insert different cd's and copying files from them, it
copies only files from disc 1, thinking it has copied files from disc 2 and 3 as
well

Expected Results:  
asked for the cd *device*, asked you to insert cd1, mounted the device, copied
files, unmounted, asked you to insert cd2, mounted, etc....

You used CD_ROOT when you're copying from the CD.  CD_ROOT is for copying from a hard disk, as it overrides the CD detection routines.
