It is a VB6 application; perhaps MSVBVM60.dll (and any dependencies) are not available in a WINE environment?
?
It does run for me on a native Win11 box, but in my case I wound up using 'cpmtools', which is command-line.
?
If anyone cares to try cpmtools out, there are builds for Windows, and likely ones for Linux in the distro's package repository (if not, it's open source, and just use 'make' et al). ?Here is a link for Windows users:

The tool requires that the disk's parameters be declared as a 'format' in the 'diskdefs' configuration file. ?Here are two that I created for the 250 KiB and the mondo 8 MiB floppies for the Z80MC build of CP/M. ?Just append this to the end of 'diskdefs':
?
==========begin snippet
; the 250 KiB format for Z80MC
diskdef z80mc0
? seclen 128
? tracks 77
? sectrk 26
? blocksize 1024
? maxdir 64
? skew 0
? boottrk 2
? os 2.2
end
?
; the 8 MiB format for Z80MC
diskdef z80mc1
? seclen 128
? tracks 1024
? sectrk 64
? blocksize 2048
? maxdir 1024
? skew 0
? boottrk 2
? os 2.2
end
==========end snippet
?
Then you reference the format in the command line tools. ?E.g.:
?
cpmls -f z80mc0 DAVEDISK.BIN
?
cpmrm -f z80mc0 DAVEDISK.BIN CPMTEST.COM
?
cpmcp -f z80mc0 DAVEDISK.BIN cpmtest000.bin 0:CPMTEST.COM
?
The tools are rudimentary. ?Stick with the uppercase file names and specify the 'user number' in the CP/M files when creating. ?You will need to 'rm' a file before you can 'cp' it over.
?
Anyway, aside from figuring out diskdefs, I found the command line more helpful because I can script it.
Maybe this will be useful to someone...
