Hi,
There is no windows version defined in the [Version] block, should a windows version be defined to use as default?
The short answer is that it should not be required
In the case where a program tries to detect what version of MS-Windows it is running on is there a default returned? Are there any test programs to see this at all? I did not find a test dir in the src or other wine package for testing. There is a "tools" dir that had some very useful programs I have used before.
Drive F: was setup as CDROM, even though the ./tools/wineinstall said it could not find the CDROM during the process I think. Checking fstab for "cdrom" would determine the cdrom drive(s) on most computers.
This should work. A log of the relevant part of ./tools/wineinstall would be good.
OK, I ran again, it ended abrumptly (perhaps because this was the 2nd time I ran it). You can see the log of the cdrom detection section though.
### Installing default Wine registry entries...
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A: Could not stat /home/now3d/.wine/yes (No such file or directory), ignoring drive C: Could not stat /cdrom (No such file or directory), ignoring drive D: Invalid path L"c:\windows" for L"windows" directory: does not exist Perhaps you have not properly edited or created your Wine configuration file. This is (supposed to be) '/home/now3d/.wine/config' Registry install failed. ###
Well to be case correct "Wine". I think this is a holdover from when wine "needed windows" so the drive would be "MS-DOS" as oppossed to "*nix" The label is irrelavant to wine but.(ahem) isn't "MS-DOS" a (tm). Anyways changing it would not hurt any objections or other suggestions?
"Wine" sounds good to me, I did not think partitions can have mixed case filenames in MS-Windows though? It seems to force the first character to be in upper-case only in my experience.
I noticed a few references to MS-DOS in the "config" file, such as:
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
Perhpas this would be better labeled as "DOS" (generally), or even just "Drive configuration" in this case..? MS-DOS is a trademark.
