Wine had made a system32 folder.  How do I copy the files required from
say a floppy or better still email attachment to the system32 folder.  I
found one file in the fake_windows folder (a .dll required)?  I went to
File Roller, but I didn't seem to be able to cut and paste the file from
there.   There must be a way though.
