    Question EFILive software in Linux using WINE?

    OK, almost 14 hours, and for the first time since 1982 or so, I have not booted into a Microsoft product all day.

    I want to try to run the Scan and Tune tools in Linux. It looks like WINE is fairly straightforward (at least on first look).

    However, I do NOT want to mount my "C:" drive, where the EFILive programs, "My Documents" and my EFILive data files are located (among a few Gigs of other important stuff...).

    I have a 5GB volume "D:" mounted and availalbe on my Ubuntu 6.06 desktop (It is also my "online" drive while under Windows - things a hacker/cracker/crackhead can look at and I won't care or lose any valuable data) that has a "LINUX TEMP" directory where I place files I want to get to easily in Linux

    So, what would you Linux-heads recommend? Should I install a second copy of the EFILIve programs (that won't work, will it) on my D:volume, or delete the install on C: and reinstall on D: (but what then about the C: "My Documents" crap), or what?

    Is it possible to mount a Windows folder only?

    Is it possible to use WINE to INSTALL the EFILive software in my Linux volume and have a Windows EFILive and a Linux EFIlive???

    Hmmm...

    No big hurry, but if all goes acording to Hoyle, I'll be mothballing Windows by the end of the week!!!

    Thanks!
