I was installing Icewind Dale, and like all games and Wine-installed programs, I meant to install to the partition I have set aside for that purpose, which is mounted to /usr/local/games, with a symlink in my home directory. So naturally I usually set this partition to be a Wine drive, and I prefer to use d: as the browse dialog naturally defaults to the c: drive and it's faster to change if I only have to change to the next drive.
When I went to the 'Drives' tab in winecfg, I had
c: (of course) e: (tmp) f: (my home directory) z: (/)
There is something wrong here, if you are starting from a clean install you should only have c: and z:. Did you completely remove your .wine directory before trying?
Well I *thought* I had-- I renamed my current .wine directory (I have several previous renamed .wine directories in my ~/ folder; the names all start with .wine, though, such as .wine.borked, .wine.borkedmaybe, .wine.old and the like. I try to preserve the directories to preserve the Registries for reference). I also just remembered that I have a /wine directory containing a drive_c directory from a CVS install of 20050628, (which I keep forgetting to delete, but I did do an 'extra' make uninstall in the source directory before I deleted the source directory, to be sure that it was really removed). Wineinstall did not seem to think I had any previous wine directories to refer to, it made a new directory in my home folder normally, so as far as I could see, it was all all right, but perhaps it was not and this is the source of the undefined 'wonkiness' I've been experiencing latel, as this is the second time I've been told that I should only have c: and z: in winecfg, and I've *never* had just c: and z: on first run (before doing autodetect or anything, which I prefer in fact not to use and don't feel I should have to use it).
What I will do is physically move all the old ~/.wine directories to another drive which I will unmount, and I will delete the bogus /wine directory in /usr/local/games (I was experimenting with the ability to put my .wine directory in a location of my choosing, and thought it might be good to have it on the same partition as the wine-installed apps, since a few apps I've run across really want to be installed in C:\Program Files, or do not let you choose, as in the case of things like Quicktime, and I don't like spreading my Wine apps across partitions if I can help it).
I will then make uninstall, make clean, check to make sure that all vestiges of Wine are gone to the best of my ability, then reinstall with wineinstall and see what winecfg looks like then. Oh, and I'll catch the output from wineprefixcreate, in case there's a clue there.
It will take a few hours to get to it, though, RL is making some demands, and all my current projects are backed up a bit. I'll report if any of this helps, but if anyone sees anything I've missed in my cleanup procedure, please tell me.
