similar to: transfer from CD?

By default Wine installs its fake-windows part into $HOME. I want rather have it on a separate partition, that I mount as /wine. How can I do this? What I have found was: http://wiki.jswindle.com/index.php/Advanced_Wine_User_Information#Changing_the_location_of_Wine.27s_installation My steps so far: - Installed Wine with Synaptic - # wineprefixcreate --prefix /wine - I find the fake directory

Hi, this is my first attempt at using Wine. After installing wine I tried to install Worms Armageddon with wine e:/Install/install.exe at first I got a lot of.... fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 38 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL around 50 lines, then the installer appeared and I installed as on windows except to c:/Team17 rather than program files. I then went looking for the WA.exe file

Hey all, I'm trying to run the HakInstaller for Neverwinter Nights (http://nwvault.ign.com/Files/other/data/1076838606000.shtml ). Unfortunately, it requires .NET 1.1 to run.

Hi guys! I am new to Wine, and one of my all-time favourite porgrams ever, IrfanView, is the first one I'm trying to run with this emulator. I got past the installation, which needed MFC42.dll, by installing vcrun6 (MS Visual C++ 6 sp4 libraries: mfc42, msvcp60, msvcrt) using WineTricks. Now IrfanView itself still won't run. I re-installed my system after screwing it up last week, before

Hi. Newbie here. Read that Wine 1.2 will run .msiexec files and the way to install it is as user in terminal window: cd Desktop, then type msiexec /i filename. Is that right or should I do something else? Thanks. Bob

Hey now- I'm trying to get Flash 5 installed using the default version of Wine that came with my Mandrake 8.0 installation. I am using Wine configured to use a "fake windows" partition, run in Windows 98 mode, and run within an X window. I can get the installer program for Flash 5 to start and being unpacking, but right after the unpacking of the .cab files I get an error

Greetings, Running Xubuntu 8.04 on IBM R51 laptop with 1 Gb of RAM, 1.5 Ghz CPU. Downloaded and installed the latest wine from www.winehq.com. I installed Quicken 2007 without event. I wanted to restore a file from my Windows version of Quicken. I hit the radio button saying I'm not a new user and want to restore a file from the computer. I browse to the file and select it.

I DLed DirectX 9.0C redistributable and ran it with Wine. I didn't know it would want to know the directory to install to. Its obviously going to be in Wine's drive_c folder, but beyond that I have no idea. I was having some trouble with Winetricks installer so i thought manually would be easier. Anyone know where to install these files?

Hello, I have successfully installed MDL ISIS Draw 2.5 (a program used in chemistry) under Wine (0.9.12 in Debian). Now, I need to install an addon (AutoNom2000, which is used to give IUPAC names of compounds) for this program. (This addon requires Windows 2000/XP; Wine was configured to "mimic" Windows 98 by default). When I try to run its installer, I get the following:

I guess I've been going about things all wrong when it comes to upgrading Wine. I have assumed that I could simply install the newer version over the top of the older one and that any conversion issues would be addressed on the next startup. I see now that is not the case. I have not even seen any mention of compatibility issues in the abbreviated release announcements. I need to learn

Hi ! I run Wine 20050211 on RedHat 9. I would like run an application which use 4 specific fonts (.FON under windows). I read the manual (winehq.org/site/docs/wine-user/config-fonts-main) and follow the instructions. But it seems not working ... 1. I convert .fon files to .bdf and to .pcf.

I have a question regarding moving Wine's C:/ drive to another file system. My hard drive is currently partitioned into 3 primaries. I have a NTFS partition that Windows is on, a Ext4 with Ubuntu, and a third, larger, FAT32 partition that I use to hold cross-OS data (music, pictures, documents ect). I have had infinite difficulty getting wine to run apps that I installed (through wine) to my

Hi all, I'm writing because I'm running into some wierdness I can't find any bug reports about. So it must be me, I guess. I'm trying to install the Imatch demo from www.photools.com, which uses an MSI installer. I have Wine set to Win98 compatibility mode. I can get the registered version up and running if I install it on windoze first then move the whole installation directory

Hi, I didn't find any clue in the documentation, so I'm posting my problem here. I'm trying to use wine with a special prefix, whose drive_c/ is containing a whole Windows C: drive. The problem is that I can't launch the binaries, because the wine reg files aren't in sync with the Windows registry. I tried to "reg export" the keys corresponding to system.reg and

Hey all, Yesterday I compiled and installed 1.3.24, and after having done that I thought I'd give the new Age of Conan Unchained thingie a whirl, just to see if it worked. Long story short, it didn't. I was fairly sure the installer/patcher was doing its thing, because it was pulling some 8GB worth of data to my disk, but all the while it was doing it, all I got was a an empty window.
