I usually cd to ~/.wine/dosdevices

ln -s /mnt/dvd h:

to add my dvd burner to install stuff from.

bash-3.00#ls -ail
total 8
410764 drwxr-xr-x  2 wino users 4096 Nov 13 18:36 .
410726 drwxr-xr-x  9 wino users 4096 Nov 13 19:21 ..
410923 lrwxrwxrwx  1 wino users   16 Nov 13 18:30 c: -> /home/wino/.wine
410924 lrwxrwxrwx  1 wino users   11 Nov 13 18:30 d: -> /home/wino/
410928 lrwxrwxrwx  1 wino users    8 Nov 13 18:36 h: -> /mnt/dvd

Does the example make it clearer?
