These are the steps I used to install Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 with Wine 1.40 on Fedora 12 x64.

I don’t have a ton of time to go into the details, but I’ll show you the commands and annotate them quickly now and update the page when I get a second.

This is not for inexperienced users at this point — hopefully in the future it will be — however currently it is very rough and should only be attempted by those familiar with their Linux distro (hopefully if you’re reading this, F12 x64_86).

NOTE: The code below does not wrap long lines. There is a considerable amount of text that extends past the right side of the code viewer. To get the entire line, hover over the top right of the code viewer and click the far left button that says “view source”.
