[Wine]Accessing Linux Drives/Folders from Wine-run Windows apllications
Hello List, My version of wine is wine-20040505-1fc1winehq and I run fedora1. This works fine except for the fact that I can't open any files. I configured the wine to use existing windows 98 installation ( a new clean installation- unused as I work exclusively in Linux ).My Drives are setup as follows: [Drive A] "Path" = "/mnt/floppy" "Type" = "floppy" "Label" = "Floppy" "Device" = "/dev/fd0" [Drive C] "Path" = "/mnt/Windows98" "Type" = "hd" "Label" = "/mnt/Windows98" "Filesystem" = "win95" [Drive D] "Path" = "/mnt/cdrom" "Type" = "cdrom" "Device" = "/dev/hdb" "Filesystem" = "win95" [Drive E] "Path" = "/mnt/cdrom1" "Type" = "cdrom" "Device" = "/dev/scd0" "Filesystem" = "win95" [Drive X] "Path" = "/tmp" "Type" = "hd" "Device" = "" "Filesystem" = "win95" [Drive Y] "Path" = "%HOME%" "Type" = "network" "Device" = "" "Filesystem" = "win95" [Drive Z] "Path" = "/" "Type" = "hd" "Label" = "Root" "Filesystem" = "win95" If I run notepad from console I can see all above drives except X and open files. If I ryn winword from Windows installation, I can open 'open Files' dialog, but cannot list or open files on any of the drives listed which are A,C,Z only. I get the error message ' permission denied' and an exception is raised which freezes winword. Could anyboy help point the source of above behaviour?
