John,

Yes. To make things easy, you will hopefully already have your windows 
partition automount during boot. If not, then you can either add the 
appropriate mount point to /etc/fstab, so it will automount, or mount the 
partition before launching Win4Lin.

Next, create a link to the mount point within your ~/win directory. For 
example, if your windows C drive is mounted as /mnt/c, then you can soft 
link that into ~/win/win_c, or whatever you want to call it. The syntax for 
a soft link is:
         ln  -s  /my/source/dir /my/linked/dir

Now, when running windows under Win4Lin, you should see a folder on your 
"C" drive which represents the link to your windows partition.
