I'm trying to install "Microsoft Digital Image 9", and the very
first thing it does is configures a few files then immediately prompts the user
it's going to reboot. I press "Ok", and it then does what it just
did, and pops up the same message. This can continue forever. So, I decided to
try to press "Ok", then immediately enter in "wineboot".
That doesn't work. So I try "wineboot -r". That also does
nothing. So I try "wineboot -s", nothing happens again, so I finally
do "wineboot -f" and it finally kills it. I really want to install
this program, but rebooting is failing. I've installed the latest wine, and
I've run the "install-wine-deps.sh" script from the wine hq site.
I'm currently running Ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex on i386.
I think that wineboot may not be looking in the correct places to reboot wine
since I'm thinking it should be looking in
"/media/cdrom/startup.exe", so here's a copy of my wineboot file
(it's as default as can be):

Are there any recommendations for a similar, open source, image editor?
Thanks
