           Summary: StickyDrive demo installer doesn't recognize USB key as
                    removable
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.8
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://mmiline.com/
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: download, Installer
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kernel32
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


(From mmiline.com's main page, click on StickyDrive and then "Learn More",
then under Red Sox demo, click "Download Now".  This points to
http://www2.stickyinc.com/download/getDownload.php?idTag=BOSTN-1668&action=download
which downloads the installer in question, 
InstallStickyDrive-BOSTN-1668.exe.)

The installer puts up a dialog box of drive letters,
saying "Please select a valid removable drive...",
but nothing is listed, even if you have a USB drive
inserted and Wine has already created a d: mapping for it.
If you click on the "Show all drives"
checkbox, all drives are indeed shown.

Happily for us, this dialog box is in a separate
executable.  While that prompt is up, grab a copy
of C:\windows\temp\SDDriveSelector.exe
You can then reproduce the problem easily by running
just that .exe.

+relay shows it's using GetDriveType() on each drive,
but evidently it doesn't like what it's getting.

You can work around this by using winecfg to mark d:
as a floppy, but really, wine should know that the inserted
USB drive is removable, shouldn't it?
