------- Additional Comments From julliard@winehq.com 2007-22-06 04:41 ------- The warning is correct, if a bit confusing in this case. The problem is that z:\home\scott expands to something like /home/scott/.wine/dosdevices/z:/home/scott, which does create a loop with /home/scott.
It does not actually matter where /home/scott is pointing, since dosdevices will always be under it, there will always be a loop if your home dir is a symlink. We should probably treat the dosdevices dir differently from the others.
