Under SUSE93, I figured out how to create a "drive J" in wine (using ln -s), but I don't know how to make "J" the current/working drive/directory before invoking the DOS app. Any ideas how to properly invoke this app under Linux?
cd ~/.wine/dosdevices ln -s /what/ever/directory j:
and now drive j: points to the installation.
I *did* that! My question was "what's next?". wine j:program.exe will invoke the program, but the working/current drive is not "J:" - at least that's what the application says when I try to run it. I think the current drive is still "C:", but I'm not even sure how to confirm that.
Just cd /what/ever/directory ; wine foo.exe
It should pick up that it is in J:
That was so easy, thanks! I got past the "current drive" errors from app, but it doesn't work under wine. I get the following messages, then it hangs.

It is a DOS program... DOS program support is limited in WINE. Please use "dosemu" or "dosbox". Ciao, Marcus
