Glad to hear you don't need a physical floppy drive.
Remember, it's not that you need a CD-ROM emulator for WINE. You need a CD-ROM emulator. An illusionary optical drive generated by the kernel will be seen by all programs the kernel runs. WINE is just one of many programs that will see it.
And there's no way to install a CD-ROM emulator into just WINE. Windows hardware emulators work by a kernel-level driver conjuring up the illusionary hardware from the kernel level. You can't install drivers into WINE.
However, you can install Linux into VirtualBox and have VirtualBox emulate an optical drive with a provided CD image. Also, you can duel boot your Mac with Linux and install CDemu and WINE (the better option).
Cheers,
Jake
