i ran out of space on the OS drive but I wanted to install halflife 2 episodes 1 and 2 as well as some other the other steam games.

what i wanted to do was move the wine folder to another drive, but when i did so, i tried to run steam and it would not open, (recvd main exception error).
is there any way to add more space to my root drive lsimilar to mounting a partition to another drive in windows? or possible to redirect future application installs for wine to another drive/directory?
 
You can setup drives to point to any directory with winecfg and any installation inside of WINE should be just like on Windows so you can pick the destination.

Also if your root filesystem is on LVM then you can just add another drive to that volume and expand the filesystem.

My first thought too, that is what i would have done.

When it comes to mount points, just copy the stuff in the folder to the new partition and create a mount point to that folder in your fstab.

unfortunately the drive my steam folder is located on is a windows partition formatted in ntfs
