You have found a security feature with the mount command, but that does
not mean that the mount point has to be root only. You can create a
mount point that is world readable (664) if you need to.
Next step is to use winecfg and make the image appear as if it is the D:
drive.
Both of these have been discussed elsewhere in the forum.
