What's the deal with Windows setup? I tried running setup to see if I could install Windows 98 in Wine to set up the necessary dlls and such, and it complains "Windows 98 requires a computer with an 80486 processor or higher." I'm running a P-II. Does Wine report back something other than the actual processor, or is there something else going on?

You can install Windows on a separate partition and then use it in conjunction with Wine. Or copy over DLLs and fonts. But first you probably should just try whatever apps you are interested in without bothering with Windows at all.
