Wait, is this any different from having starcraft on a USB?

It's the same thing, but you put it into a computer running Linux instead of one running Windows, and you don't need to have Wine installed ahead of time.

I tested the monikon version, ICC is unavailable at megaupload
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.

You could always build your own.

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.

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.

@ 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!

Damn, a horse porn virus? I'm sorry, but ROFL! What exactly were you trying to download in the first place?


Probably just the horse porn without the virus.

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.

But you could always play SC in your Linux server management course(and fail!). This provides you no additional resource that the original BW+wine did not.

But I'm too lazy to go through the effort of installing it with wine. 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
