lol took me a while to realize i didn't have fuseiso, but it works. installed and used acetoneiso to mount (which installed fuseiso w\ it) theres nothing wrong with the script and if theres any viruses it would be within starcraft or the wine binary but I dont think there is. | ||

I don't think so, I've bought my copy of Starcraft Antology (and Starcraft II), this is just the most convenient way for me to play it. Also, got both from here.

I highly doubt it's the most convenient way to play it in that if you have wine, just popping in the disc and installing gives you exactly the same no-cd functionality. | ||

I think a LiveUSB would be sexier (who uses CDs nowadays anyway), and you can make one using http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ and one of those images. | ||

You could always build your own. Why build what has [possibly] been already built? That's why I ask. It seems for a LAN center or whatnot a preconfigured SCBW livedistro would be sweet. Incredibly easy to setup and takedown, also webbrosing/viruses/etc would have no chance to affect the media. edit @ RAZZ Does SCBW work natively in Linux [i didnt think it did?] I think the distro would have to be preset with wine working with SC out of boot. That is where I would need to be "creative". Of course then the LIVEUSB would function more like a portable OS, which is also good for personal use, but not for deployment. I love unetbootin! | ||

Yes, SCBW does work natively with the latest stable version of wine. So long as the image has wine and SCBW installed, you're good to go. | ||

It sounds long-ish, and everything on my Linux machine is pretty much wiped when I logout, so I'd have to do it every time. This sounds much faster ![]() Oh cool! I should use this then, since, just as Linux is so much better than Windows, we all know that BW is so much better than SC2. | ||

Well, in my case, the EEE901 I have to use until I buy a better computer runs much better on Ubuntu than on Windows, and given the shitty HD I'm always out of space, so I end up having all my games and some applications on a SDHC card, and this is where all these packages from portablelinuxapps.org come handy ![]() | ||
