I am new to Wine and having some problems (my problem, not Wine's!). I
have a WinXP partition (/dev/hda1) that has a couple of Win apps I want
to run from my Linux partition using wine.
I have mounted the WinXP partition onto /mnt/win and I can see it just
fine. In wincfg I have Drive C: set to /mnt/win. Now I want to run a
program called ocad.exe which is located in "Program Files/Ocad8" on C:.
Whenever I run any of the following commands I get errors to the effect
of "Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not
accessible." and "Warning: the specified System directory
L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.":
$wine C:\\Program/ Files\\Ocad8\ocad.exe
$wine /mnt/win/Program\ Files/Ocad8/ocad.exe
Any wine users out there know what I am doing wrong?
