I saw that wine can run on an installed windows directory instead of a
fake one. I tried to make it run using my installation of windows XP,
it started up fine and then died with an error that it can't write to
C:\Windows. Is it possible to make it run using a read only windows
directory but to write to a local one all its settings?
