           Summary: Winesetup: (easy) sets registry settings before choosing
                    Windows install
           Product: Wine
           Version: 20020904
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-gui
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: _Shawn_Curry_ at excite.com


I just started using wine. I wanted to run VB but still be logged in to
Linux(RH8 2.4.14-18kern).  I'm a 1st year programming student and I'm in a VB
class.. so naturally I wanted to run it in a superior environment (thanks BTW).
 Anyhow, I have both Win XP and Win ME installed, and a "Working Model Edition"
VB6 from the book.  The Win XP(FAT32) is on the same drive as Linux, and Win ME
is installed on a second drive, all setup in my /etc/fstab to automount.  When I
run winesetup for the first time, it sees Win XP and thus gets the wrong
settings(if any).  If I dismount the Win XP partition and overwrite the
configuration, it gets the settings from Win ME.  THE NEXT SCREEN is where you
choose which Windows install to use.  Basically it would make sense to choose
which install to use before detecting the settings.  Copy & Pasteable almost? 
Thanks.
