It is important that you have a recent bash installed. The first line of
/usr/local/winetools/wt208jo points to /bin/sh. Under Linux there will
be a bash being started. I changed this to /bin/bash for the next
release of WineTools. For now you can change the line for usage in BSD.
And remember to change the DIALOG variable in line 12 to your Xdialog
binary.

It is important that you first go through the *hole* Base setup. That
mean also creating a new WineTools. And yes, there you have to enter the
*right* path for CDs to mount. The path /mnt/cdrom is just an example.
WineTools has an error that leads to the CD mount question every
time you do not use the default file download option. Just say "no" here
and everything should work. The error is fixed in the next version.

It asks for the right location and you have to enter it during Base
setup. But as I explained you do not need to mount the CD if you have a
downloaded file. Just point to the right point. Because of the above
mentioned error you have to have the file in your home directory. This
will also be fixed in the next version.

In a typical Linux environment you partition your drive to have /home on
a different partition.

No this is not true. WineTools uses the $HOME variable and does
everything related to that. Also Wine installs at ~/.wine which is where
ever you user has it's directory. In bash this points to the real home
directory which is in BSD where ever it is.
