In ubuntu, unlike windows, filenames are case sensitive (lower, UPPER, Mixed). So the file you're trying to launch is probably SETUP.EXE or Setup.exe, or maybe even Setup.Exe.
Here's a nice tip; it's called filename completion. Open your terminal, and type the below command, but DONT press enter:
Code:
wine /media/cdrom/s
then press [Tab] twice. If nothing changes, change the "s" at the end of the command to "S" and press [Tab] twice. One of these should give you a list of filenames starting with "s" (or "S"); note the correct capitalization. type in the whole filename and you should be good to go. If you still can't get it to work, post the output of these commands here
Code:
ls /media
ls /media/cdrom
