To install msi files on windows itself you require the  Msi Installer
provided by MS available for download from here. Check the site for
more recent versions.


http://download.microsoft.com/download/WindowsInstaller/Install/2.0/W9XMe/EN-US/
InstMsiA.exe


So you first have to use wine and install the msiinstaller itself and
then use it to install *.msi files.

Read this page since you need to make a few changes in wine config.

2004-10-23 Thread Arjun Asthana
Hi,

Wine can't run .msi installers. Is there any patch/dll through which it can?
