Change to the Wine source's main directory and try again. [root@xxxx root]# /wine/tools/wineinstall WINE Installer v0.74 please help :( RedHat 9.2??? Do you maybe mean Mandrake or something? RedHat stopped at 9. My experience with trying wine in RedHat (and now I run Fedora) is that you are best served by installing the version of wine that is on the CD-ROMs! RedHat has a different way of doing some things, and they expect files to be in certain places. Add the wine package(s) from the CD-ROMs by using the "Add/Remove Applications" program in your GNome/KDE "System Settings" menu. That will almost certainly work!

In my case, it reports wine-0.20030508-1 This will see if you have wine already installed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JadeWolf324 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 wine comes with MDK 9.2 standard...just type wine and it installs itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwolfe Veteran Posted January 6, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 6, 2004 wine comes with MDK 9.2 standard...just type wine and it installs itself. wine comes with RH & FC, too. Just Mandy installs it by default. With Fedora & RedHat you have to manually select it at time of install, or after the fact with Add/Remove Packages ("redhat-config-packages" at the shell prompt). I use FC at home, but Mandy on my laptop at work. They both work very well. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
