:blink: I wonder ... that they deliver the program that way ... and no installation instruction. Quite unusual.

Ok I have this game and I installed with no hassle.

What I did.
Burn the ISO's to cd.
inserted the cd 1
enter konsole as root.
entered cd /usr/media/Neverwinter_cd _1 *I think best to just type the first few letters and then hit tab*
type tar -xvjf /usr/local/games/*whatever the tar file is called
and repeat for cd two.

sorry about being vague but I am at work and its 5 in the morning.

I have just noticed that you get a install readme.URL file open this with your web browser and it will give you the install instructions. * Thats were I got them from.
