(Get the code!)
I would like to install Far Cry from the DVD on Ubuntu Lucid but I wasn't able to do so because the installation executable was lacking the executable bit. I verified in fstab and there was the exec option on the cdrom line. Furthermore I was able to install Counter Strike from the CDROM (is there a difference between how DVD and CDROM are managed?). I had to umount the DVD and mount it again in an other folder, /usr/cd (/mnt/cd didn't work) to get the install executable work.
