"Please insert and mount" ISO is bad #30

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install a dvd-based verb
2. Read dialog

This dialog has a few problems.  Most people have no idea what "insert and 
mount" means.  This text is better:
Please insert the CD "foo"

The dialog also needs a cancel button.  If you go to install a game you can't 
find the DVD for, you get stuck in a neverending OK loop -- the close box 
doesn't help.

Fixed.

On at least some KDE systems, you have to mount the disc manually
by going to Dolphin and clicking on it, so this change might increase 
confusion there.  I suppose we could could have a special prompt just for
those systems.

Sadly, there is no cancel button in zenity that I could find;
the little 'X' go-away button does the same thing if people notice it, though.

Yes, but about Gnome? I'm stuck in the loop (my CD is ruined) and another 
"download" (wich is a folder) jut got stuck as well. How do I get out of the 
loop?
