Why were you pointing Wine at a real Windows partition?

I did it myself once and have read a lot about others doing the same. It's just straightforward: point Wine to where all the applications are. No dual installation for dual booting.

If people are actually doing this, we should consider putting
in a check to make wine abort when it detects this.

Likely a good idea.


BTW., to get a single-installation, dual-booting setup working, a virtual machine is the appropriate tool: VirtualBox, VMware. Getting a single Windows installation to boot two different hardwares is a bit tricky, but it works.
