If she maps it as a drive in winecfg and installs PS onto it. I don't see why it shouldn't work.

The trick is to actually install Wine there - it's not a single file, so you can't copy it. If you compile Wine on another PC, just specify: Code: ./configure --prefix=/media/my_flash_drive/wine .... make install Then run it from there using the full path: Code: /media/my_flash_drive/wine/wine notepad
