AFAIK you can install Britannica from any directory under Windows, so just
copy the primary CD to the harddisk and point it to the real second one
when it asks for it. And since you are running it under Wine you can point
the "cd-rom drive" to any directory and do some mv operations to put the
'other disk' there.

Yes, I've been "flabbergasted" too lately. Several non-working programs now
run out of the box.
