Adobe Air fails to install

[Clawinus]

After executing the first two of the following lines I get the subsequent error messages. It looks to me as if the error is not related to Adobe Air but to my set up of Wine. This is my first installation of a Windows app in Wine.
Can anybody help?

winetricks adobeair

The command you recommended winetricks adobeair did nothing, but I do not know where to enter it.
On terminal?
I the called up wine to call Notepad and got the following information.
Obviously I do not have a C: Drive. Where should it be and how can I find it?

wine --version Output version information and exit
