And AGAIN
In the README file they deliberately say NOT to compile wine in the
/configure make make install BUT to run
/tools/wineinstall.
 I installed wine several times and each time it recognized my NTFS
partition.

Subject: ./tools/wineinstall not able to recognize my Windows partition.


Hi All,
   I downloaded wine-20030508 and compiled as the root user. In the end when
I
run the ./tools/wineinstall as user...its says

I am assuming you want to create a no-windows configuration yes/no? When I
say
no it asks me to create the configuration file manually.

I am wondering why is it not able to recognize the /mnt/windows
filesystems???

Here is how my etc/fstab looks like.....BTW I am using Mandrake 9.1


/dev/hda3 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/hda2 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
none /mnt/cdrom supermount
dev=/dev/scd0,fs=auto,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
none /mnt/floppy supermount
dev=/dev/fd0,fs=auto,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows vfat iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0


My windows partition has the following privileges

drwxr--r--   25 root     root        16384 Dec 31  1969 windows/
drwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            0 May 18 10:11 floppy/
drwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            0 May 18 10:11 cdrom/


I tried changing it to 777 for windows it does not allow me to do that.


Thanks,
