[UBUNTU] Master Collection CS5

[MrTay]

Hello guys! I've been installing Master Collection CS5 on ubuntu. I got it to work untill the installation screen. But I got this error.

The Setup encountered an error(-1) during install. Please restart the machine and try again.
EDIT: I wonder If I install it on Windows first, then copy from Windows(Master Collection) to Ubuntu. No installation required.

Any help would be appreciated.

I doubt Master Collection is supported on Linux. Which means it does not work in Linux.

And not it will not work if you copy the installed files from windows to Linux. The ways things run in both OSes are different.

Your only hope is to run a virtual machine in Linux, or just use Windows to run it.

Ha, that's just hilarious, when Adobe singed a contract with Windows, and thinks that money comes first in anything. Supporting Linux means no money to earn, so why the trouble? :P Anyways, I reformatted my laptop and make a dual boot into my Windows 7. But I still love Ubuntu with the new software(Docky) I just installed :) Took me only 13GB.

Most Adobe products don't work under linux distro's, I've got Photoshop CS4 working perfect but it still has a few minor hiccups from running under Wine.

Follow OMG!Ubuntu, they provide regular updates on Ubuntu software and the like, I'm a big fan of theirs and as you've probably guessed I'm also a Ubuntu user.

EDIT: Test an installation under Wine but it's not likely to be successful but don't take my word for it, I'm only running a relatively flawless Photoshop under Wine due to it being a portable version.
