Read 'man wine' and 'man wine.conf', and see e.g. http://www.la-sorciere.de/Wine-HOWTO/configsystem.html and http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2001/09/21/FreeBSD_Basics.html?page=3 Red Hat does provide an example config file, somewhere. $ locate config | grep wine shows /usr/share/doc/wine-20010822/samples/config So the first step is $ mkdir ~/.wine $ cp /usr/share/doc/wine-20010822/samples/config .wine then you have to edit it to tell it where drives A and C are. Too bad Red Hat didn't make this easier! - Dan
