Newbie setting up wine: 20001202: o valid DOS drive found, check your configuration file.
Shalom!
Okay, this is my wine config file, which i have copied out of the wine ini
and then changed it to suite my computer. Im using SuSE 7.1 Professionell
and have my fat32 partition mounted on /windows/C (<= capital). Im am using
Win2000 and this is what wine says:
linux:~ # wine --winver win2000 /windows/F/UO/client.exe
Warning: no valid DOS drive found, check your configuration file.
Warning: could not find wine.conf [Drive x] entry for current working
directory
/root; starting in windows directory.
Invalid path 'c:\windows\system' for system directory
Perhaps you have not properly edited or created your Wine configuration
file.
This is either /etc/wine.conf or $HOME/.winerc
or it is determined by the -config option or from
the WINE_INI environment variable.
Wine has used /root/.winerc as configuration file.
Fact is, nowhere in the configuration file i have a Windows/system left,
everything changed to winnt to fit Win2000. Everything is mounted, I am
root and still this error occurs, although I have tried everything what the
documentation says...
here's my config
Thanks a lot ;)

5 ;; [Drive X]
6 ;; Path=xxx (Unix path for drive root)
7 ;; Type=xxx (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd',

Why do people not read error messages? Put your config file where wine looks for it. You could always get a more recent wine, put "" around the terms of the config, put this line at the beginning: WINE REGISTRY Version 2 and put it in ~/.wine/config instead. Wine-20001202 must be pretty sour by now.> > Thanks a lot ;)Lawson This message is brought to you by Wine-20010326, junopine-2.0.2, Juno 2.0.11, and pine-4.10 ---cut here ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

one thing that pops out immediately - if you have win2000 using NTFS, I don't know if vfat/win95 supports that, but if it doesn't, that could be a problem. Also, Wine writes to the registry, based on what the program calls for... since Windows 2000 uses a slightly different registry form than Win9x, I don't know if this could interfere with Win2K operation, but it might... Unfortunately I'm just a newbie myself, and I've not had the chance to try Wine with Win2k, but I just thought I'd drop my 2 cents in anyway ;)> Okay, this is my wine config file, which i have copied out of the wine ini > and then changed it to suite my computer.
