1.6.2 is just so outdated that it's no wonder it doesnt work. There has been no
updates to that wine version around 2 years or something like that while the
development versions has gained every 2 weeks new version status. There is a
bug 34259, it's reported against 1.7.0. My understanding is that you really
need some of the wine-staging patches. 

I tried the installer with wine-git and I get 

"AddAccessAllowedAce(, group) failed: 1337"

errors I don't know if that's something to worry about or not, but it still
goes on installing stuff. I set everything as default I just changed the
install path from default z to c. 

I seem to get a crash too. Don't know the cause. It goes quite far installing
stuff. update-info-dir.dash is the (file?) it hangs finally.

I tried the same procedure with wine-staging (deleted wineprefix before trying)
and I can finnish the installer. I also get AddAccessAllowedAce(, group)
failed: 1337 errors, but I wasnt able to spot a crash during install. 

wine-staging version used was 1.9.5- Linux mint here.
