Question: USB bootable WINE ... for win10

Post by MarkNEW »

Hello Forum,

a customer was asking me, whether it is possible preparing an USBstick for him with a bootable Win32 installation ( and yes, he was mentioning WINE) which has access on his Win10 Pro computer.

I was answering, that this probably is not possible, because the NTFSSystem of Win10Pro needs dedicated rights for reading/writing

I might by wrong with my answer and would be interested in your opinion.

thanks for reply

In theory, yes, it could be done. But running programs from a windows installation is not supported, and generally not a good idea.
