You'll find lots of information on 'mklivecd' in the new user guide, the wiki and in the forums. I'd suggest a thorough read before proceeding with it as there can be issues. But with a thorough reading on the subject, you can prepare yourself for complete success, IMO. Or you may choose to simply use the command. I'm in favor of learning.
Distribution: PCLinuxOS 0.93a, Arch Linux 0.7.2 Gimmick, ManDrake 9.2 and WinBlozes Xpee

I do not know if wine will do the job. I have heard that it will, and I have heard that it won't. Dual-booting would probably be the way to go on that.
