i have a little problem.i have a pc game (finfal fantasy 7).it has 4 cd-s:
1) install
2,3,4) play
i tryed to play this game under arch
i installed wine
wine has created a directory ~/.wine
this directory has this other subdirectories :dosdevices and drive_c
then i inserted the cd.i mounted the cd under : /mnt/cd(this my direcory for the cd's).
then i emulated the instalation :"wine /mnt/cd/install.exe".
wine installed the game in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/ff7/
then i had to play the game but it only runs with the cd in the cd-rom.it doesn't permit to install the game completley.it just needs the cd in the cd-rom.so i aked my self...the game needs to see that the cd is inside.i read the manula and i found out this command :
ln -s /mnt/cd ~/.wine/dosdevices/e:.it didn't worked.it just says:please insert cd 1, 2, 3..i managed to mount the cd in /.wine/drive_d/ ....still nothing.then i mounted in /.wine/d and /.wine/dosdevices/d and so one .......
what should i do???????? :?

I don't wanna shatter your dreams... but I don't think FF will work... I have tried version 7 and 8, and all of them fail because of the midi devices... it's discussed alot in the forums at transgaming.com, and I have yet to see a resolution...

in order to have cd detection working you need to add a symblink to the cd device called e:: running this:
ln -s /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 ~/.wine/dosdevices/e::

and to tell wine where's your cd drive. For that copy your wine sample config file (/etc/wine/samples/config) to your .wine directory and ad the cdrom device.
[Drive F]
"Label"="CD-ROM"
"Type"="cdrom"
"Path"="/mnt/cd"
"Device"="/dev/cdroms/cdrom0"

wine does not support directX - you need wineX for that (or cedega, whatever it's called now)
