1) 
 
 
Create local config file ~/.wine/config? 
(yes/no) no 
 
 
Aborting install. Try again as root to generate a system wine.conf.

2) 
root at jalmari wine-20040505]# ./tools/wineinstall 
WINE Installer v0.74 
 
You are running wineinstall as root, this is not advisable. Please rerun as a 
user. 
Aborting. 
[root at jalmari wine-20040505]# 
 
So wineinstall failes to generate system wine.conf
