I can see that you normally use MS Windows.
What is your reason for using Linux ?
What distribution of Linux did you install ?
You normally cannot install a Windows game on a Linux OS.

When the Linux host boots up ... you should get some splash screens that will indicate the name of the distribution.
ie Fedora, Ubunbtu, Gentoo, SuSE, RedHat ... etc.
Applications -> System Tools -> ... you may have a utility here that will show you disk space usage.
Applications -> System Tools -> Terminal.
This will open a command line terminal. Type the words "df -h"

Yes, and no. Originally Posted by supernewb

Blizzard does not currently have a version of WOW for Linux.
Linux does have utilities for Windows emulation that can be used to run Windows OS applications within the Linux OS.
Here is a link to a page about WOW on Linux.
You will find many sites that talk about this, other than the link above.

I would suggest a google of "warcraft mandriva" ... you should get a number of sites that will describe how to specific to Mandriva.
