I am having consistent difficulty with write access and installing applications. The errors show up as write protect errors or not enough disk space errors. 'winefile' shows the disks as being NTFS. Is this correct or is it a winefile anomaly? Are these conditions related? What is the correct file system type? How can this be managed? 'winecfg' does not seem to allow management of drives. It seems to read the contents of dosdevices readonly. Thanks - Dan

[Wine] Re: winefile shows drives as NTFS - is this correct?
Probably winfile anomaly. In winfile all my partitions show up as NTFS regardless of if they are ext3, FAT, FAT32 of NTFS. Also drive c: shows up as NTFS. The DVD shows CDFS. Have never worried about this as I never had any problems with write access. Dan Sawyer wrote:> I am having consistent difficulty with write access and installing > applications.
