Bison will work as a replacement for yacc. If you are
using RedHat or Debian, install the flex and bison packages.
For the automatic processing of the test suite scripts, you also need

<title>The [Drive X] Section</title>
<para>
It should be pretty self explanatory, but here is an
in-depth tutorial about them. There are up to 6 lines for
each drive in Wine.
These sections are supposed to make certain Unix
directory locations accessible to Wine as a DOS/Windows drive
(drive 'X:') and thus accessible to Windows programs
under the drive name you specified.
Every DOS/Windows program sort of expects at least a C: drive (and
sometimes also an A: floppy drive), so your config file should
at least contain the corresponding sections, [Drive C] and
[Drive A].
You need to decide on whether you want to use an existing Windows
partition as the C drive or whether you want to create your own
Wine drive C directory tree somewhere (take care about
permissions !).
Each drive section may specify up to 6 different settings
as explained below.
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>[Drive X]</programlisting>
The above line begins the section for a drive whose letter is X.
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>Path=/dir/to/path</programlisting> This
path is where the drive will begin. When Wine is browsing
in drive X, it will see the files that are in the
directory <filename>/dir/to/path</filename>. Don't forget
to leave off the trailing slash!
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>"Type" = "floppy|hd|cdrom|network"</programlisting>
The above line begins the section for a drive whose letter is X
(DOS notation: drive 'X:').
You could e.g. create an equivalent to a drive 'C:'
under DOS/Windows by using a [Drive C] section name.
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>"Path" = "/dir/to/path"</programlisting>
This specifies the directory where the drive will begin.
When Wine is browsing in drive X, it will be able
to see the files that are in the directory
<filename>/dir/to/path</filename> and below.
(note that symlinks to directories won't get included !
see "<link linkend="dirsymlinks">ShowDirSymlinks</link>"
config setting)
You can also make use of environment variables like $HOME here,
an example for using a mywinedrive directory in your home dir
would be
"Path" = "${HOME}/mywinedrive"
Don't forget to leave off the trailing slash!
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>"Type" = "hd|cdrom|network|floppy"</programlisting>
Sets up the type of drive Wine will see it as. Type must
equal one of the four <literal>floppy</literal>,
<literal>hd</literal>, <literal>cdrom</literal>, or
<literal>network</literal>. They are self-explanatory.
(The |'s mean "Type = '<one of the options>'".)
Usually, you choose "hd" for a drive ("hd" is default anyway).
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>"Label" = "blah"</programlisting> Defines the
drive label. Generally only needed for programs that look
for a special CD-ROM. Info on finding the lable is in
<literal><dirs to wine>/documentation/cdrom-labels</literal>.
<programlisting>"Label" = "blah"</programlisting>
Defines the drive label. Generally only needed
for programs that look for a special CD-ROM.
The label may be up to 11 characters.
Note that the preferred way of managing labels and serial numbers
of CD-ROMs and floppies is to give Wine raw device access for
reading these on a per-CD case (see "Device" below) instead of
hardcoding one specific "Label".
</para>
<para>
<programlisting>"Serial" = "deadbeef"</programlisting>
Tells Wine the serial number of the drive. A few programs with
intense protection for pirating might need this, but otherwise
don't use it. Up to 8 characters and hexadecimal.

Using a "Device" entry instead of hardcoding the "Serial" probably
is a smarter choice.

<title>The [wine] Section </title>
<para>
The [wine] section of the configuration file contains all kinds
of general settings for Wine. When specifying the directories
for the directory related settings, make them as they would
appear in wine. If your drive <medialabel>C</medialabel>
has a path of <filename>/dos</filename>, and your
<filename>windows</filename> directory is located in
<filename>/dos/windows</filename>, then use:
<programlisting>"Windows" = "c:\\windows"</programlisting>
of general settings for Wine.
</para>
<para>
This sets up the <filename>windows</filename> directory.
Make one if you don't already have one. NO TRAILING SLASH
(NOT <filename>C:\\windows\</filename>)!
<programlisting>"Windows" = "c:\\windows"</programlisting>
This tells Wine and Windows programs where the
<filename>Windows</filename> directory is. It is
recommended to have this directory somewhere on your
configured <medialabel>C</medialabel> drive, and it's also
recommended to just call the directory "windows" (this is
the default setup on Windows, and some stupid applications
might rely on this). So in case you chose a "Windows"
setting of "c:\\windows" and you chose to set up a drive C
e.g. at <filename>/usr/local/wine_c</filename>, the
corresponding directory would be
<filename>/usr/local/wine_c/windows</filename>. Make one
if you don't already have one. NO TRAILING SLASH (NOT
<filename>C:\\windows\</filename>)! Write access strongly
recommended!
</para>
<para>

This sets up where the windows system files are. Should
reside in the directory used for the
<literal>Windows</literal> setting. If you don't have
<filename>windows</filename> then this is where the system
files will go. Again, NO TRAILING SLASH!
This sets up where the windows system files are. The Windows
system directory should reside below the directory used for the
<literal>Windows</literal> setting.
Thus when using the example above, the system directory would be
<filename>/usr/local/wine_c/windows/system</filename>.
Again, no trailing slash, and write access!
