Subject: WINE, WINASPI32, how?
I turn to the local font of Linux information, PLUG!

I have successfully run many a 16-bit DOS application on Linux under
DOSEMU and FreeDOS. These apps talk to SCSI devices through calls to the
16-bit ASPI SCSI layer.

Now I have the goal to use a Win32 application that needs to talk to SCSI
devices through the 32-bit SCSI ASPI driver. WINE seems the likely
canidate. However, I run the application with wine and it does not see
the SCSI device at all.

Here are some things I have done.
- Proven that Linux can see the device by mounting the filesystem.
- Added a drive definition to my ~/.wine/config file that points to the
mount point.
- Set the /dev/sda1 permissions to 777 (wide open).
- 16-bit DOS apps can see the SCSI drive under DOSEMU/FreeDOS.

I am hoping that there is some configuration step I am missing to "turn
on" 32-bit SCSI support under WINE. Has anyone successfully used a SCSI
drive under WINE? How did you do it?

I continue to google and search. Interrupt my search with good news, if
you can.
