Hi, I am trying to run a program (Diablo 2) from an iso image of the disc rather than the disc itself. I used mkisofs to create the image, then I mounted it on /mnt/virtualcd. I can't get Diablo 2 to recognize it, though. First I create a new drive in winecfg, e:, and made that /mnt/virtualcd, but when I ran Diablo 2 it said it couldn't detect the CD. So then I removed e: and changed d: to be /mnt/virtualcd instead of my real cd drive. It still couldn't detect the CD. What do I need to do? Thanks, Colin

You may need to make a symlink to the device (in this case the iso file). In ~/.wine/dosdevices, there should be a symlink d: to the mount point and d:: to the device.
