I'm not sure how he did his, but in my case, IIRC, I had done it by just
double-clicking the install/setup file using wine.  I know I also used
WineTools (http://www.franksworld.net/winetools/) once as well.  From
there it was just a matter of importing the back-up files I created in
Windows into it and away I went.  It all worked great for me.
