Summary: StickyDrive demo installer doesn't recognize USB key as removable Product: Wine Version: 1.1.8 Platform: Other URL: http://mmiline.com/ OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download, Installer Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: kernel32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
(From mmiline.com's main page, click on StickyDrive and then "Learn More", then under Red Sox demo, click "Download Now". This points to http://www2.stickyinc.com/download/getDownload.php?idTag=BOSTN-1668&acti... which downloads the installer in question, InstallStickyDrive-BOSTN-1668.exe.)
The installer puts up a dialog box of drive letters, saying "Please select a valid removable drive...", but nothing is listed, even if you have a USB drive inserted and Wine has already created a d: mapping for it. If you click on the "Show all drives" checkbox, all drives are indeed shown.
Happily for us, this dialog box is in a separate executable. While that prompt is up, grab a copy of C:\windows\temp\SDDriveSelector.exe You can then reproduce the problem easily by running just that .exe.
+relay shows it's using GetDriveType() on each drive, but evidently it doesn't like what it's getting.
You can work around this by using winecfg to mark d: as a floppy, but really, wine should know that the inserted USB drive is removable, shouldn't it?
