Hi folks I"ve downloaded and installed wine on RedHat 8, kernel 2.4.19 (and 20) The install for Mechwarrior 2 has run without errors. When I give it: wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Activision/Mech2/MECH2.EXE I get an error window saying: "You must insert the MECHWARRIOR 2 CD into your CD-ROM drive." Of course, its already there and the drive was mounted with the command
