Hi All,
One solution is to edit your /etc/fstab to read like:
/dev/hda3 /dosc msdos rw,exec,noauto 0 0
which will allow wine and the dosemu to execute and set the filesystem
as a read write filesystem. Setting a dosfs as read only is the safe
way to go on a multi user system sinse a dos fs does not really use file
permissions to limit access to the system. Thus anyone can access any
part of a dos file system and look at the unprotected files in the sub
directories.
