Hello there. The original script for "Prince of Persia - Sands of Time" did not work for me, mainly because my two CDs have different names, something that the original script seems to rely on to work. Therefore, I've modified the script so it now checks that the correct 2nd CD is inserted. As I was modifying the script, I decided to make several additional improvements. This is the complete list:

- The script now checks that the correct 2nd CD is inserted before proceeding to copy its contents
- Added link removal to d: before creating it for first time in the script (there are Linux distros that seem to ignore -f switch of the ln command when the link already exists)
- Now every message string in the script can be translated
- The script now supports more than two languages
- Added Spanish translation
- Made sure that game is installed in "Archivos de programa" (Program files in spanish) under a spanish environment

That's all! Now, here is the script:


#!/bin/bash
