ra2md.exe (the real launcher) reads ra2md.lcf, which is a textfile, and runs the file referenced by RUN2. That is yuri.exe. This one handles cd-check and reads yuri.lcf, which points to the real game engine (gamemd.exe) and runs it.
Look at my site's download section, there's Saberhawk's RA2_YR_Update, which, among other stuff, bypasses the cd check. I use it, and I have no problems running the game from Alcohol's ISOs. And it contains only ra2.exe, ra2.lcf, yuri.exe, yuri.lcf.
