Guess you did not pick up on the fact that trying to run the instller, it fails with a number of erros involving trying to register classes and stuff in the Registry. So it bombs with errors, and does not finish. I worked out that wine 1.2 sets up shop for itself under /home/[userID]/,wine, but with several folders and a virtual C drive of its own. Now VirtualBox lets the guest OS see and treat shared folders fom the host, and I was able to use shared folders as a way to get the /Embird32 folder copied over to the virtual drive. But I was not certain of where to put it. And after that, I did not know how to get wine to let me run EMBIRD32.EXE as an esecutable. Each time I tried, it died with multiple errosr reported. So what should I do that I haven;t done yet? Oh, as to configuring wine, I see nothing there to guide me. So I figured others just know more than I do, so let's see if some help is available..
