Yes. Go to Desktop. You can find there at least two entries: "My
Computer" (with all your disks) and "/". "/" is root of your unix
file-system. Also you can go to "Z:\" - this is also root of your unix
file-system. Wine always have Z: disk by default. You may use winecfg to
create more disks if you wish. For example it is good idea to create disk
that points directly to your home directory.
