just a clarification: Wine will hang upon the completion of the extraction of the dcom98 files.. it never gets to the installation part, only the extraction of the files completes and then wine hangs.
could you try 20040715
20040716 fixed this problem for me. My system is very similar to the one described in the first post. (2.6.x kernel w/ nptl)
20040716 fixed the problem! Thank You.
