Okay, I'm not a programmer, but I'm not new to Unix either--used it years and years ago in college before Win 3.1 came out. So I'm pretty rusty, but it IS coming back.... Here's my problem. I'm using Wine-20010510 on SuSE Linux 7.1. Wine seemed to install fine, but every time I try to run it, it says the c:\windows and c:\windows\system directories are invalid. I've double- and triple-checked my ~/.wine/config file and compared it to /etc/fstab, and I'm pointing all the drives to their appropriate mount points; ie /etc/fstab /dev/hda1 /windows/c /dev/hda2 /windows/d /dev/hda3 /windows/e ~/.wine/config [Drive C] Path=/windows/c Type=hd Label=MS-DOS Filesystem=win95 etc. etc., same for the other windoze partitions. But when I run winecheck, it keeps saying no path has been specified in the config file. The drives are mounted--I can access them from the linux command prompt just fine, and can see the /windows/c/windows and /windows/c/windows/system directories just fine, but wine isn't seeing them. I've looked at the FAQ's and HOW-TO's on winehq.com, and I appear to have everything set correctly in the config file. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. TIA, Drew Sylvester mindtrip@swbell.net
