Create prefix without launching a app?

[malonn]

I'm just wondering if it's possible to create a wine prefix without launching an app? So, I know by running...

Code: Select all

$ wine winecfg

or

Code: Select all

$ wine </path/to/executable>

...it creates a prefix. Can I create a prefix without launching an app? If so, how? If not, oh well.

Lol, I found this online immediately after posting my question:

Code: Select all

$ wine wineboot

Everything kosher with that call?

That's ok.

You should get questions to download mono and gecko.

On my system, i make sure,
that i have downloaded the newest mono and gecko packages,
before creating a new prefix to avoid this dialog.
