# Open a Linux terminal and search for Wine packages. You need to know what your package manager is: apk, apt, dnf, emerge, pacman, yum, zypp…. Tell the package manager to search for "wine" and look for a 32-bit Wine package in the results.

The package might be called "wine32", "wine32:i386", "wine.i686", etc. If you don't see any of those options, you may need to enable 32-bit architecture with a command such as (in Ubuntu) <code>sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386</code> followed by <code>sudo apt update</code>, then search again. In order to install Wine, the package manager may also need to install a ton of dependencies if this a fairly new Linux install, but it will probably not take too long. | ||
