4a. Don't use the MIME-packed version of the license they sent
you, but rather the plain text one in the email (they _are_
different).
5. If you have the suidmanager Debian package installed edit
/etc/suid.conf changing 6146.124 to root.bin :
win4lin /opt/win4lin/bin/mountc root bin 4555
win4lin /opt/win4lin/mcd root bin 4555
win4lin /opt/win4lin/publicbin/dosexec root bin 4555
