installation didn't set up a registry

[Fabian Cenedese]

>First of all,  I'm using wine source code tar file version 20020804. I ran 
>wineinstall to compile and install wine on a Linux-only machine (Mandrake 
>8.2).  It creates the windows directory alright but the system and 
>system32 directories don't have any dll's or registry information in 
>them.  Doesn't the install process setup a fake registry?  Do I have to 
>copy one from a windows installation?  Or is there a tool I can use to 
>create one?  I'm asking because I can't get any installshield programs to 
>run and installshield always seem to require a registry to work.

Search in archives for regapi and winedefault.reg.
