--- Comment #11 from Sander info@goldenelite.com 2009-01-05 09:06:02 --- Confirmed.
When symlinking drive_c to a directory within the /home mount (a seperate Ext3 formatted disk) there is no problem. Only when symlinking to JFS.
Commands used:
<working state from here> vortex@vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ mv drive_c drive_c_good vortex@vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ ln -s drive_c_good drive_c vortex@vortex-desktop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Winamp$ padsp wine winamp.exe <works!>
vortex@vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ rm drive_c vortex@vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ ln -s /jfs/winecur/drive_c vortex@vortex-desktop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Winamp$ padsp wine winamp.exe err:module:attach_process_dlls "NSCRT.dll" failed to initialize, aborting err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\Program Files\Winamp\winamp.exe" failed, status c0000005 <doesn't work anymore>
This might not be a bug in wine, but perhaps in JFS or the way JFS is integrated into Ubuntu 8.10.
