--- Comment #1 from Luke gaming4jc2@yahoo.com 2008-06-28 19:42:12 --- I used Nathan's method: The installer kept failing on me, but I managed to install like this:
$ cabextract -d dotnet dotnetfx.exe $ cd dotnet $ wine install.exe ----------
It installed, gave me the same error as him. I repaired installation, and things on wine are running slugish but at least running.
