Re: Installing WordPerfect 8 in Debian

I just barely bought the retail version of WordPerfect 8 for Linux, but  I
can't install it.  The install instructions say to go into root, so I do,
and then run the install.wp file in your cdrom directory.  The file
permissions for install.wp are:

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root       root        39983 Nov 23  1998  install.wp

But when I type './install.wp' it says 'bash: ./install.wp: Permission
Denied'  What do I do?

the cdrom is probably mounted noexec, try mount -o remount,exec /cdrom
