How do i backup my kernel library?
 
This game im oing ot dl says: Before you run Continuum, backup the original kernel library and download the new patched version with the following commands:
udo mv /usr/lib/wine/kernel32.dll.so{,.bak}

sudo wget http://subspace2.net/kernel32.dll.so -O /usr/lib/wine/kernel32.dll.so

How do i backup my kernel library?

Just copy it to some other location or copy it where it is with .bak extension or something.

From your post, you know what file you want to backup. Isnt it?

is that the correct way to backup kernel library, if so where would the backup be?

Instead of mv, if you use cp that would be better.

Code:

cp /../../....dll.so  /../../...dll.so.bak

0. If you already have any version of wine installed on your system, uninstall wine from your system.

1. Download deb package of wine RC1 patched for use with Continuum - 13.1 MB



2. Install wine using the deb package downloaded above.

3. Download standard Continuum installer - 4.7 MB

4. Run the installer downloaded above (default options are fine) on wine.

5. Run Continuum.

6. PLAY!

It seems you already have wine installed? Am I correct? If not then download and install wine from either wine homepage or use apt to install wine.
Apt is easier. You do not need to download and install. Just tell apt what package you want. It will download and install it for you.

when i type> wine /home/user/D:/Continuum040Setup.exe

Now an Access Violation window comes to front and says At adress 00409B6 Write of address 004000000

It could be something to do with your memory. I havent used wine much and I havent seen this error myself. Will need to look for it.
