Hello all, 

I seem to have gotten myself into a pi$$ing match here
at work. Everyone here runs RH 8 or 9. I am running
FreeBSD 4.x STABLE. They can all download and run
Crossover Office, which is frintend for Wine and
allows them to run M$ Office on their systems, meaning
they can dump their Windows workstations and use
Linux. 

I said that I could do the same on FreeBSD. Crossover
office does not run on FreeBSD. (shame on them) So I
loaded Wine from ports. I can now run notepad,
progman, and wcmd (command prompt). But when I try and
load Office 2000, I get the followin error:

wine /cdrom/SETUPOUT.EXE
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory),
ignoring drive A:
fixme:msi:MsiQueryProductStateA
"{00160409-78E1-11D2-B60F-006097C998E7}"
fixme:process:CreateProcessA
(C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\msiexec.exe,...):
NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS ignored
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory),
ignoring drive A:
fixme:msi:MsiEnableLogA 00000516 "E:\\Outlook 2000
Setup (0004)_MsiExec.txt" 0
fixme:msi:MsiSetInternalUI 00000005 0x0
fixme:msi:MsiInstallProductW L"D:\\data1Out.msi" L" "
Call not implemented

Is there someone out there who is running Wine on
FreeBSD that could help? 

Thanks,
Ron Clark
