I am sure I am doing something fundamentally wrong but don't know what else to
do. Running winecfg gives errors:
> winecfg
> wine: creating configuration directory '/home/robert/.wine'...
> ln: creating symbolic link `/home/robert/.wine-tdv10N/dosdevices/m:/usbdisk_5'
> to `/media/usbdisk_5': Permission denied
> wine: wineprefixcreate failed while creating '/home/robert/.wine'.

So I created .wine directory manually and tried again:
> winecfg
> Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible.
> Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.
> Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory
> '/media/QW05PRMR1B', starting in the Windows directory.
> err:shell:SHGetFolderPathW Failed to create directory
> 'L"c:\\windows\\profiles\\robert\\Desktop"'.

I tried adding drives in winecfg but get errorsd with that as well:

err:winecfg:apply_drive_changes   unable to define devicename of 'C:',
targetpath of '/'
err:winecfg:apply_drive_changes   unable to define devicename of 'I:',
targetpath of '/media/cdrecorder'
err:winecfg:apply_drive_changes   unable to define devicename of 'J:',
targetpath of '/media/fd0'
err:winecfg:apply_drive_changes   unable to define devicename of 'K:',
targetpath of '/home/robert'

Trying wine install.exe anyway didn't work. Same arrors as above. I even tried c
> wine install.exe
> Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible.
> Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.
> Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory
> '/media/QW05PRMR1B', starting in the Windows directory.
> wine: cannot open (null)

Somehow things worked much better for me with the original version of wine.

So, I guess I can't check if the problem still exists in this version of wine.
