All I have is the CD that came with my laptop to ghost windows back onto my machine. I have emailed the port maintainer regarding this and wine is indeed broken on FreeBSD and he does not have the knowledge to repair it.=20 The wine faq actually says that none of their team use FreeBSD so there is no support from them for it either. I would like to see this working again if possible. Is there even anyone out there who has this working already who could send me a tar of their wine directory with ie6 installed? Thanks Chris
