Ryan,

I'm having some trouble getting my first Tribes2 machine setup... =( I'm doing
everything right but the damn loki update tool isn't working properly.  Do you
have anytime at all to give me any advice on this?

I've uploaded a perfect cd structure for Tribes2 and have d/l to the linux box
the tribes2d-wincd.run which makes your initial install from the windows cd
directory.  I have set the SETUP_CDROM env variable and the install runs fine,
but, when it starts to update it goes straight to tribes2-25034-cdrom-x86.run
and I get the "No matching delta" error.

I've tried every troubleshooting combination I can think of and am now
attempting manual updates from the runfiles on loki's website:

ftp://ftp.lokigames.com/pub/updates/tribes2/

I'm so stuck here, I've been working on this for two weeks and can't believe
that ANYONE out there is running a Linux server, lol...

thanks,
Brad

Unfortunately I don't have any Loki game's CD, but I try set up some
titles.
All attempts failed. Loki their updates build against original Linux
binaries. In the update included only "delta" binaries. Update tool create
new binarie from "delta" and old originaly Loki binarie (MD5 checked).
     So , You should have originaly Linux game distro for using updates.
Or enjoy tribes2d-wincd.run as it is.

Subject: Installation problem with UT2003 (retail version)
Message-ID: <20030401000924.57710.qmail@web80109.mail.yahoo.com>

When attempting to install UT2003, I get about 75
percent through the installation and then it fails. 
Here are the last 20 lines of output:

"$setup" "$@"
This installation doesn't support glibc-2.1 on Linux /
x86
(tried to run setup)
Fatal error, no tech support email configured in this
setup
The setup program seems to have failed on
x86/glibc-2.1

Fatal error, no tech support email configured in this
setup

I'm wondering if someone can get me pointed in the
right direction to troubleshoot this problem.  I've
attempted the install three times for verification. 
Twice it failed at XceptOne.utx.uz2 and once it failed
at XceptTwo.utx.uz2.

Any help will be much appreciated!

Sorry everyone.  I should have read my error messages
more carefully.  The problem appears to be a bad CD. 
I tried manually copying those particular files to my
harddrive, and the cp fails with read errors.
