Open a terminal window from "Applications --> Accessories"
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/feisty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
Once that is done you are supposedly able to type
sudo wine
Yeah well if during the install of the application you must say--change CDs you get the error "Cannot eject CD because application is using it". Umm yeah well that sucks. I thought I had it figured out with the "sudo wine eject" command but althogh the Cd ejected, the installation would not continue. As soon as I get this figured out I will tell yall all about it.

First, please don't ever do 'sudo wine'.
It's just not a good idea to run
Windows programs as root.
(You may need to do 'sudo rm -rf $HOME/.wine' to recover from this, I don't know.)
Second, the trick to ejecting a cd-rom
in that situation is
wine eject
It's not 100%, but it often works.
Third, the place to go for help with
wine is the wine-users mailing list.

Thank you so much.
For some reason the "wine eject" command locked up the install. The CD was ejected but I couldn't continue.
Any ideas?
