First of all ~/.wine/dosdevices/c: is just a symlink to ~/.wine/drive_c. Second, it is possible to have other wineprefixes besides ~/.wine, each will have their own drive_c, and they do not have to be located in your home directory. > > The reason winecfg will not allow users to point C: elsewhere is to prevent them from pointing it to a real Windows partition. If they do, Wine will overwrite the real Windows registry and Windows will be toast. This is already explained in the FAQ, and the decision not to include information on how to circumvent it is a deliberate one. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-497f1a295d53dd3444f211df2b13312c7767afa2 > > Definitely. That is unless you want to completely break your working Windows installation and many features available under Wine will NOT work on a FAT32 or NTFS native partition. James McKenzie
