made some progress im now
Step 5a: Installing Everquest (from scratch)
In the Configuration Panel click the Miscellaneous tab
Select "Run a .exe file in this virtual drive"
Find your EQ_setup.exe and run it
Set up your SoD directory (I use C:/Program Files/Shards of Dalaya/EQ Client)
Skip the DirectX installer (click cancel)
The EQ patcher/installer should run at this point, put in your Daybreak Games info and get the game installed (if the installer isn't accessing the internet more likely than not you are missing the 32-bit libnss-mdns -- here is a list of the terminal commands to fix this for a variety of Linux distros) done all this cant get the game to install

patcher/installer doesn't work even though ive done my libnss commands
