Summary: wine from version 1.1.7 to 1.1.12 no longer uses winecfg advanced settings for drive mapping Product: Wine Version: 1.1.7 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: kernel32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: martinrs@softhome.net
After running winecfg Drives->Show Advanced to set drive Type, wine versions from 1.1.7 no longer uses this information to find the drive type. This is confirmed by tracing through wine debug.
For example, run winecfg, choose Drives tab, Add.., D: drive, Show Advanced, Path:/some-normal-directory-path, Type: CD-ROM
The D: drive is not detected as CD-ROM but rather as a normal disk.
Also confirmed with Type: Local using a path that is a bind mount point (not even a network mount), and it detects as remote drive rather than local drive.
This is confirmed from version 1.1.7 to 1.1.12 (not sure after that).
