Can someone give a walkthough of how to install Wine?
 
I'm currently running Fedora core 2 and gnome. I'm having trouble with Wine and I'm not sure what I did wrong. I'm very new to linux so the more detail the better. I downloaded the newest version of Wine for fedora core 2, i686. I extracted the rpm and from everything I see on the web site it should configure itself and create the folders although it isn't. Do I need to run another program that was extracted or install windows for it to run or did I just do something wrong?

Not the answer you wanted, but try the wine source release because it has a file in the tools subdir called wineinstall which configures everything for you. If you have the devel libraries installed (and gcc, make etc) then you might actually find it easier.

Hi,
I guess what is need left is configuration for this purpose, just read this small tutorial:

It should answer all your questions.

I hope this helps
