I had a pretty simple time of it
I remember finding a good howto at www.linuxquake.com
If I recall correctly I pretty much just D/L'd a linux binary, mounted my
dos partition and symlinked /usr/local/games/quake/Id1/
to the Quake /Id1/ dir on the dos partition (well after making all the apropos
dirs etc...)
had to futz with permissions a little but the aforementioned howto seemed more
up to date than the one that came with my distro. (but of course peruse both)
