Install Diablo from your original Cd-Rom. Do not run the game after the installation. Instead, configure wine.

$ winecfg

Add Diablo.exe to the applications. Set the Windows Version to "Windows 95". On the Graphics tab, check all the options and select a virtual desktop of 800x600.

Despite the latest patches, Diablo still requires that you have the cd-rom in your cdrom drive. We don't like swapping CDs, so let's make an iso from our Diablo cd-rom we can use instead.

$ sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=diablo.iso

After the command completes, you should have a file called diablo.iso in your working directory. Copy this to your desired location. Next, let's mount it as our cd-rom.

$ sudo mount -o loop /path/to/diablo.iso /mnt/cdrom

You should now be able to run the game... but mine crashes. shit.
