[Wine] Disk drive question

I am new to Wine--I tried it about 7 or 8 years ago, with no luck 
whatever, and now for the first time I'm
trying it again.  I am amazed at how well it works!  I have installed 2 
windows programs, DraftSight and
GcmWin.  The first is a CAD program and the second produces a Great 
Circle Map centered on your input
coordinates.  I would like to try and install an old AutoCad, but I'm 
having trouble with it, not only in
Wine, but in XP itself.  It depends for installation on a floppy disk 
and a CDrom.  I am using a laptop at
the moment, with a built-in CD drive and an external USB floppy drive.  
What will Wine call these
drives? (I may have to point to one or the other in the course of the 
install, altho I should not have to.)

Thanx for all help--doug
