I keep getting prompted by wine that I need to reboot every time I try to install a program. I did a search and I believe my issue is that I need to use wineboot to simulate a windows restart. When I try to run the command wineboot I get an error that says wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\wineboot.exe" I've found a few posts on this, but no helpful answers yet. Is this a bad install or do I have it configured incorrectly? I'm a newb, so I apologize if this is a simple thing. I'm running Fedora14. Thanks!

You can check that with 'ps -ef | grep wine'. If you see wineserver running, that means something got stuck. If that won't help, make sure you are using 32-bit Wine and not 64-bit Wine. To check if you are using 32-bit Wine run: Code: WINEARCH=win32 wine winecfg If it starts - you good.
Thanks for the suggestion! That seemed to go well. I'm now able to do wineboot at the command line and it doesn't give me an error. However, I'm still getting the message "The system must be rebooted before installation can continue." Any thoughts? Thanks again!
I gave that a try, but no luck. It seems to go pretty quickly...like too quick. I'm not sure if it's actually doing anything.
