mrkazoodle Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Hi,I'm running a dual boot setup (ubuntu 10.04 & windows 7, both 64 bit). I've configured my ubuntu to mount my windows partition at startup and edited the profiles.ini of Sunbird and Thunderbird to load the profiles on my windows partition. Doing so Thunderbird only has to download mails one single time and Sunbird can use it's cached calendar, no matter what OS I use.However, would you know how I could do something similar for downloading torrents? So the files would be stored on my NTFS partition and I'm able to resume downloading when I use Ubuntu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrkazoodle Posted July 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Maybe someone knows how to configure µtorrent in wine (or wine itself) to do the trick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Does uTorrent portable (stand-alone) install method work for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Stand-alone plus using winecfg to make/emulate the paths so they look the same as in Windows should work, I don't know how to do that offhand though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrkazoodle Posted July 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I made it portable (making a new settings.ini file), but it couldn't find the torrent file. I don't know how to do that. Maybe a separate partition for downloading would do the trick, but I don't like that, the less partitions the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
