it is not drive C:

you may create a linux directory called for example
/c:
/drive_c

run winecfg and configure wine

You may find out that the current "drive c" used by wine
is in your /home in a directory .wine

Maybe you have no room left on /home

Have a look to / search

ok u were right thanks, 1 problem resolved. now how do i get it to have more space? my home directory

self congrats to myself for getting it right 1st email

Hum resize partition if you know how to (risky?)

Change the wine drive C to another existing larger partition

add a HD
reinstall everhtg

create symbolic links to another directory in another partition
(way to go; look in LQ)

Let us know what you did once it works

well thanks but i just reinstalled the whole thing and replaced my partitions right and hum i got 1 more problems, i cant get to install amsn it say (French to English translation):

some packages cannot be installed: amsn-0.94-3mdk.i586.rpm ( because libtk8.4 is not satisfied.)
Do you want to continue?
cancel OK

a 2006 problem again...

what is amsn?

LQ bookmark search for zarb or easyurpmi
that will help with the dependences

otherwise try to upgrade / install tk or libtk from your dvd
including anything called lib-dev-tk or approximant name

last solution get source code and compile until you get it right
you may or may not get the dependencie problem

revert to an older amsn version
