wine users - Sep 2010 - Marking .exe on cd-rom installation as executable

Like the subject says, I know its possible for the specific program I have, I
just don't remember how to do it, or maybe don't know. I have wine
installed, and it is configured to notice the program in D: drive.

Here is what appears when I try to find welcome.exe in terminal:


Code:
kade at kade-desktop:~$ wine D:\\welcome.exe
Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory
'/home/kade', starting in the Windows directory.
wine: cannot find 'D:\welcome.exe'

And if I try to activate it from the drive or the folder, it says not marked as
executable. The last time I did it I dragged and dropped the .exe into terminal
after tryping "winecfg" or something like that, and it worked fine-
but I can't recall what I typed.

Oopsies on screwing up code seperation.

First mount the d: drive in winecfg, then what you tried should work.

Caveat: wine seems to forget the drive mappings once no apps are
running, so you may need to keep winemine running...
