It's because the CD was not mounted as the program told you. During Base setup you created a new .wine directory and were asked where your cdrom drive is. The prgram suggests /mnt/cdrom but if this is not correct for your distribution you should use the right path. I can not know the right path so you have to use your brain here. If you are not familiar enough with your distribution and with linux to know that, you have to consult the documentation of your distribution, ask google or tell us what distribution you use. > I exit WineTools. > > What now? Maybe it doesn't work with Wine 20041201? No, the installation og Office 2000 does not work yet with WineTools. Use wine-20041019 instead. > Or what wrong did I do? You did not install anything at all! Regards Joachim -- "Never touch a running system! Never run a touching system?
