Your eccopro folder is wherever you put it - unless you let the ecco 
installer put it the "C" drive, which doesn't exist on a GNU/Linux 
system. Wine and Crossover use the term (a virtual "C" partition I 
assume but I never install Ecco to it. I keep my ecco in a Apps 
partition, usually formatted to NTFS - but that isn't necessary.

I'm not sure how drives are labeled on a Mac OS but in Linus they are 
sda, sdb, sdc etc and partitions are sda11, sda2 etc.  Labels can also 
be added by using gparted, parted magic or another partition manager.

To direct the Ecco installer to one of those first you choose Z, then 
var, run, media, username, and then select any partition that is mounted.

In Debian (or it's derivatives like Ubuntu) you can go straight to media).

I use Wine when that does the job but lately (with the latest versions 
of my multiple OS's) I have had to use Crossover. However, a older 
version of Crossover (v.11 - that I already owned) has done the job.

I am not using eccoext at present (Katmouse lets me scroll) because it 
jumbles the text.

I also intend to look into a PIM / Outliner / IDE called LEO

http://leoeditor.com

That appears interesting, is available for multiple platforms and is 
open source.

(If anyone here has tried LEO please let me know).
