It may install under wine but does not work very well

Other options are
1. install virtualbox, then windows inside virtualbox then access in windows. Should work well but needs a legal copy of windows

2. Do you really need Access? there are other database programs such as libreoffice Base which do a similar job. I believe Base can read Access files.

Can you help with this problem?
