First of all, I'm using wine source code tar file version 20020804. I ran wineinstall to compile and install wine on a Linux-only machine (Mandrake 8.2). It creates the windows directory alright but the system and system32 directories don't have any dll's or registry information in them. Doesn't the install process setup a fake registry? Do I have to copy one from a
