Hi,

WTH.. how is it getting this? something is wrong before this.

Get rid of you old config file (rename it junk or something) and rerun ./tools/wineinstall. I would like to see the full log of this.

OK:

Created /home/now3d/.wine/config using default Wine configuration.
You probably want to review the file, though.

Compiling regedit...
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.

Preparing to install default Wine registry entries...
Installing default Wine registry entries...

Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A:
Could not stat /cdrom (No such file or directory), ignoring drive D:


From "config"

[Drive A]
"Path" = "/mnt/fd0"
"Type" = "floppy"
"Label" = "Floppy"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
"Serial" = "87654321"
"Device" = "/dev/fd0"


[Drive D]
"Path" = "/cdrom"
"Type" = "cdrom"
"Label" = "CD-Rom"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
; make sure that device is correct and has proper permissions !
"Device" = "/dev/cdrom"


Seems strange that although it said it was ignoring A: and D: it added them anyway.
No No No. "The default config file contains has the floppy located at /mnt/fd0 (Where it actualy is depends on your distro) likewise for your CD-ROM. When tools/wineinstall starts up regedit to install the default registry it starts up wine. wine reads the config file and cannot find those directorys (since thats not where your CD-ROM and floppy are mounted) so it ignores them


ignoring drive C:
Could not stat /cdrom (No such file or directory), ignoring drive D:
Invalid path L"c:\\windows" for L"windows" directory: does not exist
Perhaps you have not properly edited or created your Wine configuration
file.
This is (supposed to be) '/home/now3d/.wine/config'
Registry install failed.
###

do you know what the "L" is in that text? I have seen it in other error messages but it seems strange... any ideas?
The "L" tells me that the string is "unicode" as opposed to "ASCII" As for why "L" I do not know.
