Then something must be very wrong with registry import of NT based systems. Could you investigate why wineinstall/wine fails to pick up the NT registry ?
sure...actualy i did some investigation on this a few weeks ago and discovered that the only time that real-windows registries are loaded is when the path to your true windows directory is in wine's windows path... i only keep my fake-windows directory in there since linux can only read from a ntfs partition. Now I could put the real-windows directory in the wine sources, but that would cause a problem for users that don't use the same names as me...my windows partition is mounted at /windows, but the default (at least for mandrake) is something else... so that really wouldn't be feasible unless someone else wants to put some code in there to search the entire heirarchy for system32/config/system and even then, on mandrake, only root can read from the winnt partition (if you dont modify the priveleges)
