Simple Knoppix/Wine Questions

[Sniffer]

1 - Can Knoppix mount NTFS partitions and use it normally as it was Fat/Fat32/ext2 (i mean read/delete/edit...)????

2 - When installing Knoppix with Wine i need to have a dual boot so i can charge Windows Apps in Gnu/Linux (Knoppix)???

3 - Wine is compatible with most of the games for windows such as Max Payne2/Half-life and so on or only work to a few apps and games????

4 - Isn't in your opinion Virtual Game Station better then Wine to the same purposes (use windows apps and games)???


I know this are simple questions but are important to me because i want to build a new system with evrything right from the beggining.

Many thanks once again

For Question 1: See this article:

if i rember right, it can be done from the kernel.. but it does run the risk of destroying your NTFS partition

2 - When installing Knoppix with Wine i need to have a dual boot so i can charge Windows Apps in Gnu/Linux (Knoppix)???

i belive wine will let you install windows apps, since it creats a virtual C drive in the .wine folder

3 - Wine is compatible with most of the games for windows such as Max Payne2/Half-life and so on or only work to a few apps and games????

Though i'm now 100% clarified regarding my questions, thanks for that.
