[Wine] Re: Install from CD? Executable permission not set?

[jage]

So to summarize:
A windows CD where the execute permission is not set
-r-------- 1 jage jage 14860 2000-08-03 16:57 install.exe

Right clicking and choosing Open With Wine Windows Program Loader fails because of Ubuntu policy prohibiting execution of files not marked with the executable bit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/Policies#Execute-Permission%20Bit%20Required

CD cannot be mounted as executable because it is read only (see my above post)

Solution was terminal (of course):
jage at Violet:/media/QWBASMMIR1F$ wine install.exe

Hope this helps someone in the future.
