i hate doing this, but i figured it out only 30 minutes after posting this message. that seems to be the way that it always works. i couldn't get the installer to work. it would hang every time, in the same place. the way i got it installed and working was i fired up vmware (win2k) and installed it there. then i copied the install directory to my fake windows install that codeweavers wine sets up. then i exported the entire win2k registry to a file and searched for "ultima". i copied every key into the fake registry that wine uses. then i ran "wine uo.exe" and worked! the auto-patch works! now i just need to get UOAM and UOA to work. :) i'm using redhat 7.2 with the latest version of codeweavers wine with the latest winex installed over it. i'm playing ultima online rennaissance.
