Newbie setting up wine: 20001202: o valid DOS drive found, check your configuration file.

[Szandor]

Shalom!

Okay, this is my wine config file, which i have copied out of the wine ini 
and then changed it to suite my computer. Im using SuSE 7.1 Professionell 
and have my fat32 partition mounted on /windows/C (<= capital). Im am using 
Win2000 and this is what wine says: 


linux:~ # wine --winver win2000 /windows/F/UO/client.exe
Warning: no valid DOS drive found, check your configuration file.
Warning: could not find wine.conf [Drive x] entry for current working 
directory
/root; starting in windows directory.  
Invalid path 'c:\windows\system' for system directory
Perhaps you have not properly edited or created your Wine configuration 
file.
This is either /etc/wine.conf or $HOME/.winerc
  or it is determined by the -config option or from
  the WINE_INI environment variable.
Wine has used /root/.winerc as configuration file. 

Fact is, nowhere in the configuration file i have a Windows/system left, 
everything changed to winnt to fit Win2000. Everything is mounted, I am 
root and still this error occurs, although I have tried everything what the 
documentation says...

here's my config

Thanks a lot ;)

  4 ;; Each section has the following format:
  5 ;; [Drive X]
  6 ;; Path=xxx       (Unix path for drive root)
  7 ;; Type=xxx       (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and 
'network')
  8 ;; Label=xxx      (drive label, at most 11 characters)
  9 ;; Serial=xxx     (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number)
 10 ;; Filesystem=xxx (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat', 
'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
 11 ;;   This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain
 12 ;;   directory structure.
 13 ;;   Recommended:
 14 ;;   - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32
 15 ;;   - "msdos" for FAT16 (ugly, upgrading to VFAT driver strongly 
recommended)
 16 ;;   DON'T use "unix" unless you intend to port programs using Winelib !
