[ale] debian and win4lin 2.0?

[brandon.hall at alumni.duke.edu (Brandon Hall)]

Anybody successfully installed Win4Lin 2.0 demo on Debian potato?

I patched the kernel source, converted the rpm to deb package format
with alien, and installed it manually (w/o the script).  I run
winsetup and select "Install DOS" from the system-wide installation
option, but it won't mount my Win98 CD and spits out the following:

  sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `(null)/mcd'
  sh: -c: line 1: `(null)/mcd -d /dev/cdrom -m 
           /var/win4lin/cd-search.671 -c'
  sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `(null)/mcd'
  sh: -c: line 1: `(null)/mcd -d /dev/cdrom -u'

If I mount it manually and alternately specify /cdrom (or
/cdrom/win98) as a directory to install from, a window quickly appears
and vanishes, and nothing seems to change.  I guess 2.0 isn't quite
ready for Debian yet....

Any help appreciated!

TIA, Brandon
