You may be subjecting yourself to immediate termination (I know that would happen where I work.) Two: Insure that the USB device is mounting in Linux as read-write. If it is mounting as read-only consult your Linux distribution for additional assistance. Three: Check what type of drive device Wine is mounting the device as in winecfg. Make sure that Wine is seeing the drive as a removable/hard drive and not a CDROM/DVD device. You may have to plug in the device before starting Wine so that the device will be identified properly and then unmount it after shutting down Wine. James
