I'd be very interested in that too. I wonder, is it possible to do this? - You boot windows; install the application (thus creating all the nessesary registeries and dll's). - Reboot with linux, and run that application under wine. I always wanted to do that and I wonder if it's possible. It's not only about the registeries and dll's. I'm forced to use windows from time to time so it would be nice that I can install only one copy of the application and be able to run it in linux (and saving some disk space in the process) Dan Adams said: > Well, I have an old win98 se disc.
