For WINE to find a drive, your must assign a synthetic drive letter to the directory in question. You do this in addition to the regular configuration. However, floppies do not appear in the: 'fstab' file because they are mounted by the user (or automounted).
You can probably access your floppy through the "Z:" drive which is: "/". So if your floppy is mounted at: /mnt/floppy/a, you can access it at: Z:\mnt\floppy\a\ If you want your floppy to be: "A:", you will need to assign that. So, run the: 'winecfg' program and then click on the: "Drives' tab. Consult the documentation on exactly how to use this. You can probably click the: "Autodetect..." button and then Remove anything that you don't want. If you have multiple bottles, you will have to do this for each of them. -- James Tyrer Linux (mostly) From Scratch ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde-linux mailing list.
