Starcraft / Broodwar: CD not found

[Honeywine]

Hello!

Currently I am trying to install Starcraft + Broodwar on Ubuntu 11.04 using wine 1.3.15-0ubuntu5 (wine1.3). My future aim is to get it running well, and to be able to connect to a LAN with several Windows 7 PCs via TCP/IP (somehow IPX does not work for them)

BUT: I am stuck at the very beginning:

I installed starcraft on wine's C:Programs/ etc ...
but no matter if I want to play it, OR install broodwar, there is no CD found!

In wine-settings "D:" is /media/cdrom. Is this correct?

I hope someone can help me with this little project...

Using this site http://www.hermann-uwe.de/taxonomy/term/2047 I managed to have Starcraft running on wine without using the CD.

But as soon as I try to install Broodwar, the programm does not seem to recognize the Broodwar CD ...

What can I do? Is this an issue with wine? On windows - PC, the same CD is recognized without problems ...

Blizzard has a patch that you need to work without cd
In my case it was BW-1161.exe.

You can download this patch at blizzard.com:
