[Wine] Mechwarrior 2 under wine

[Mark and Janice Juszczec]

Hi folks

I"ve downloaded and installed wine on RedHat 8, kernel 2.4.19 (and 20)

The install for Mechwarrior 2 has run without errors.

When I give it:

wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Activision/Mech2/MECH2.EXE

I get an error window saying:

"You must insert the MECHWARRIOR 2 CD into your CD-ROM drive."

Of course, its already there and the drive was mounted with the command

mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

and I've used winecfg to set up wine to think of /mnt/cdrom as d:

[markj at localhost markj]$ ls -l .wine/dosdevices/
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 markj    markj          10 Feb 27 16:28 c: -> ../drive_c
lrwxrwxrwx    1 markj    markj          11 Mar  3 14:37 d: -> /mnt/cdrom/
lrwxrwxrwx    1 markj    markj          11 Feb 27 16:29 h: -> /home/markj
lrwxrwxrwx    1 markj    markj           1 Feb 27 16:28 z: -> /

Has anyone worked with Mechwarrior 2 (Win95 version) and wine?

Any ideas what to try next?

Mark
