Bad EXE-Format [solved]

[Remo]

Hello Forum

I'ld like to install Supreme Commander. While double clicking on setup.exe nothing happened, so I tried it with the terminal and it gave me this:

Code: Select all

remo@Laptop:~/virtual-drives/1$ wine setup.exe 
preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 00000000-00010000
preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 00000000-00010000
wine: could not load L"H:\\virtual-drives\\1\\setup.exe": Bad EXE-Format for

preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 00000000-00010000

Do you know how to solve this problem?
I use Ubuntu 8.04 an Wine 0.9.60...
The DVD has been mounted with AcetoneISO

EDIT: I've fixed the memory problem, the output looks now like this:

Code: Select all

remo@Laptop:~/virtual-drives/1$ wine setup.exe 
wine: could not load L"H:\\virtual-drives\\1\\setup.exe": Bad EXE-Format for

Either DVD is corrupt or you not propperlty mounted. Copy that file to you hard drive and try to run from there.

Thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately this makes no difference...
The image can't be corrupted, I also used it in Windows before.

Then you didn't properly mount that image. Consult your distro's support channels. Or better then that use real DVD.

I've solved the problem now:

I had to use the "Extract image content to a folder" function of AcetoneISO and then run it on the hard drive.

Thanks for your help!
