Hey guys I am very interested to be able to get League of Legends working on Ubuntu 14.10. I have seen many people do it and the game looks very playable for them. I dont have much direction on why the patcher does not progress but so far it has stopped at the following points
First Attempt - 71%
Second Attempt - 65%
Third Attempt - 53%
I installed it via the PlayOnLinux client without any issues.
If anyone has any fixes for this I would love you forever AND would love to add to the guide. If this has not been an issue for anyone (Weirdly I find myself with either a perfect setup or a catastrophic failure that no one can ever debug) I would be happy to poke around a lot and find the root cause and post a solution I just dont want to be digging for things that have been fixed already.
Regards,
BinaryHack.

For me it can take between 3 and 5 hours to seem to make progress (but when you look at the patcher logs it's frantically patching files in the background, it just gives too little feedback, check files under ~/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/Logs/Patcher Logs/).

I completely forgot about the patcher logs. I will check those when it snags again.
Thanks.

This is an old topic, but since I was having the same issue recently I didgged a little bit into it.
It seems that from a fresh install during patching the LOLPatcher creates ~100k small files in:
~/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/RADS/temp
So I instead symbolic linked (ln -s) this directory to a ram disk (tmpfs partition, make sure it is configured with 8G, since during installation it took ~7Gb). After that it took some 2 to 3 hours to install.

I also have the temp file being filled with thousands of files. How do you do (ln -s) exactly? I'm a bit new to linux so I have no idea how to do that.

hey bonana, I forgo about this, and only today I noticed it, when searching for something else.
Here are the commands I used:
$ sudo mkdir /mnt/tmpfs
$ sudo mount -o size=8G -t tmpfs tmpfs --target /mnt/tmpfs
And after that:
$ cd ~/".PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/RADS"
$ mv temp temp.old
$ ln -sf /mnt/tmpfs temp
After the installation concludes you may want to revert:
$ rm temp
$ mv temp.old temp
$ sudo umount /mnt/tmpfs
