how to see an USB disk through Wine

Post by pippolomeo »

hi all,

I have the following problem:

I have an USB disk which gets correctly seen by Linux Mint and gets mounted on the /media directory; how can I see it on Wine?

I am using Wine 1.01 installed via apt-get

PS: trying to add it through winecfg apparently works, but Windows applications tell me that there is no media on drive when I try to access it

Ok make sure wine has not mixed usb key up for usb cdrom.

Yes it is possiable. winecfg drives advanced and if it a usb key make sure it set harddrive.

as I said above, using wincfg resulted in "no media in the device" error. if this is the only way to do it, there must be something with my hard disk which Wine does not like

actually, now I see that from the dosdevices directory the disk is accessible, while the application I wanted to use (Restorer Ultimate) does not work with it.

well, whatever.. it's probably an application's fault

How does your app use the drive? It sounds like it's not trying to access it as a regular drive...

Restorer Ultimate is a data restoring application. you can find a functioning demo at app's site.

here it is what the terminal displays when scanning the drives:

There. Since it seems to access the disk drive directly, it is likely
that it will not run on Wine.
