Subject says it all.. i read about wine, and how you have to have your windows partition mounted.. so, how do i do this?
Also, mounting my win partition under linux means that i will be able to checkout and browse thru the contents of my Win HD during an X session?
thanks!

You need to know the drive letter of your windows drive. It's probably "hda1," which is the first partition on the primary master hard drive.
You'll want a place to mount it, so you should make a subdirectory under /mnt (you'll need to be root): "mkdir /mnt/windows"
To mount the drive: "mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows"
If hda1 doesn't work, you might try hda2, then hda5 then hdb1, then hdb2, then hdb5, then hdc1, then hdc2, then hdc5, then hdd1, then hdd2, then hdd5.

edit /etc/fstab
there's an NHF for it, and it's simple
