I missed the fact that you're on a 64-bit machine. There's no way to have Wine
itself launch the DOS executable on 64-bit.

How did you launch the installer? For what it's worth, testing with the
installer for the Comanche 3 demo on a 32-bit Ubuntu machine, I managed to get
Wine to launch the executable, but the installer fails to respond to keyboard
input. A DOSBox instance launched by Wine on my 64-bit Fedora machine quits
shortly after launch, but launching DOSBox and spawning the installer by hand
appears to let it run, although the installer behaves as if it were running on
DOS exclusively.
