installing on separate HDD

Post by on0bi »

I tried searching first, but I couldn't find anything.

I'm just wondering if i can install wine on my second hard drive. i'm planning on installing some games, but I have limited space on my regular drive. so can I install wine on my second hard drive that has more space?

i've been thinking, is there a way to make a .wine folder on my second drive and have it linked to the one in my home folder, so that way it'll store files on my second drive?

let me know
thanks

Just put it somewhere on the second drive. Mount the second drive and
use prefixes to tell wine were to look for your virtual windows
installation.
