I decided to try wine without a windows partition. Maybe I'll come back 
to it later.

I cleanly reconfigured wine. Now I have my windows partition directly 
under /home/jl/.wine/fake_windows. Under it are some directories, for 
instance Program Files, Temp and Windows. Under Windows/system are some 
zero-sized files. This seems to be correct. I tried to run wine 
/cdrom/autoplay.exe, but the Installer told me that Windows 95 is not 
supported. I changed my config, so that the system identifies as winxp. 
(config-file is attached)

Now I typed this:

jl at debian:~$ wine /cdrom/install.exe
Invoking /usr/bin/wine.bin /cdrom/install.exe ...
fixme:msvcrt:_XcptFilter (-1073741819,0x405b0900)semi-stub
wine: Unhandled exception, starting debugger...
err:seh:start_debugger Couldn't start debugger ("debugger/winedbg 
134688688 88") (2)
Read the Wine Developers Guide on how to set up winedbg or another debugger
Wine failed with return code 5

And some other error-messages:

jl at debian:~$ wine /cdrom/autoplay.exe
Invoking /usr/bin/wine.bin /cdrom/autoplay.exe ...
fixme:process:CreateProcessA (X:\war3_Install.exe,...):

What does the following line mean?

fixme:msvcrt:_XcptFilter (-1073741819,0x405b0900)semi-stub

I tried to copy an msvrct.dll from Windows XP and from Windows 98 to 
/home/jl/.wine/fake_windows/windows/system, but the error-message 
doesn't change. I changed my config to "msvcrt" = "native", but still no 
success.

I can't find the sample files in my installation (I installed the 
libwine, wine-doc, wine-utils and wine-package).
