How to setup WINE in Redhat 8/9/Fedora - anyweb - 2003-12-11
my original wine guide (with screenshots) is here

----------------------------------------------------------------------
To install Wine for Red Hat 9 or Fedora Core Release 1/2 choose a link below corresponding to your CPU/Processor type and download the appropriate rpm from SourceForge:-
Pentium 4
Other Pentiums
Athlon
Please note that a full list of available WINE downloads and up to date rpms is located right here http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine
ok to make this easier for y'all (lazy and uninformed ;-) ) check this list below (it's reasonably current) and match your DISTRO VERSION with the corresponding RPM.
in other words, if you are using FEDORA then do not try to install an RPM for SUSE, it won't work.
SUSE
-------
SUSE 9.1 professional
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...inux91.i586.rpm
SUSE 9.0
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...inux90.i586.rpm
SUSE 8.2
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...inux82.i586.rpm
SUSE 8.1
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...inux81.i586.rpm
REDHAT
-----------
REDHAT ENTREPRISE 3
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm
REDHAT 9
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm
REDHAT 8
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm
REDHAT 7.3
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm
FEDORA CORE RELEASE x
------------------------------------
FEDORA CORE RELEASE 3
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm
FEDORA CORE RELEASE 2
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm
FEDORA CORE RELEASE 1
[url=http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm]http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wi...winehq.i386.rpm
Once you have downloaded your rpm, open a console and login as root change to the directory that you downloaded the rpm file to, and then do:-
rpm -ivh wine*
The output should look something like this:-
[root@c-52aa70d5 rpms]# rpm -ivh wine*
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:wine ########################################### [100%]
[root@c-52aa70d5 rpms]#
Provided you didn't get any dependancy errors, you have now got wine installed so let's test it.
Go and download mIRC (that's a Windows Program).
When you have downloaded it, LOGOUT as root and LOGIN as a normal user (for example anyweb or whoever you are) and go to (cd) the directory you downloaded the mIRC executable to, and type as follows:-
wine mirc603.exe
This command tells wine to 'run' a windows 'program'.
After a lot (an awful lot :-)) of scrolling in the console (and it can take a few minutes) you could be lucky like me and see the mIRC installtion setup screen. Continue with the install by clicking on next... and next and so on and please ignore any non-fatal errors relating to 'desktop icons'.
Once done, you should now have mIRC working (or whatever windows application you were testing). In this example we assume that we have installed it successfully so we are going to search for the application (mirc.exe).
We do know that mIRC ends up as an executable called 'mirc.exe' however we cannot search for it yet, we need to update the file system database. As root, open a console and type
updatedb
It will take some minutes. Once done, type
locate mirc.exe
This is the result i got:-
[anyweb@c-52aa70d5]$ locate mirc.exe
/home/anyweb/.wine/c/Program Files/mIRC/mirc.exe
[anyweb@c-52aa70d5]$
Now that we know where mirc.exe is, we can cd (change directory) to the mIRC folder now and run mIRC by typing:-
cd /home/anyweb/.wine/c/Program Files/mIRC/
and then wine mirc.exe

I was about to post asking where wine put the "c drive" folder, but then I found this post! :)
It looks like wine by default puts the c-drive folder at /home/yourname/.wine/c/ This could save you the time of doing the updatedb and listening to some rather scary sctartching noises as the command hits your hard drive. :)

Warning: no valid DOS drive found, check your configuration file.
Warning: could not find wine config [Drive x] entry for current working directory /root/wine; starting in windows directory.
Invalid path L"c:\\windows" for L"windows" directory: does not exist.

I got a problem installing it on Fedora Core 2, the error message said: "wine: failed to create the process heap". Anyways, I figured it out: the exec shield is the problem. Here's the fix:
Code:
echo 0 >/proc/sys/kernel/exec-shieldz0ny

I keep getting this error message in my terminal.
Quote:error: can't create transaction locko_O I dunno. I'm such a newbie. I just figured out how to switch directories in the terminal...and admittedly, this is my first attempt at installing something. :/
