Well if you're creating a symlink, then you put the source first like this:
ln -s /dev/YOUR_CD_DRIVE ~/.wine/dosdevices/f\:
The drive read error seems to only be an issue now after game installation.
Once I kill the dosdevices, it reads the drive. I would imagine that doing a
symlink directly to the device wouldn't be effective because the files aren't
mounted there. I tried it anyway because I'll try anything at this point and
it was worse. It didn't detect at all. When the f: is set to /mnt/cdrom and
it's mounted, it detects the CD but then crashes. I think the main thing here
is if you look at the crashes I attached, it's complaining about something
called LSANS.fot. I have a file name LSANS.TTF and I've tried linking and
copying that file as LSANS.fot in the Civilization III and windows/fonts
directories and that does not work either.
