Well, no.
Where do you want to have windows/ and windows/system/ directory? In /
of the UNIX filesystem, world writeable? :)
For SuSE, I have:
A: /media/floppy/
C: %HOME/.wine/fake_windows/
...some cd drives...
X: /tmp/
Y: %HOME%
Z: /
But this is case for endless discussion I guess.
We could just make "C:" redefineable and leave the rest as default for instance.
