That helps!

I think I tried to install i386-wine, but now I will try with plain wine, or 
wine-devel.

This would be on a separate partition so as to be able to run independently of 
amd64 installation.

Then for amd64, I could mount this partition on /compat/i386 and would have to 
set up the scripts to run wine from that chroot.

I had this problem on a previous installation, remember asking questions.

That was on a hard drive that went bad (amd64 installation part), and while I 
recovered most user data, wine configuration and also i3 window manager 
configuration were lost.

I believe if you build i386-wine only to run on amd64, you don't need Xorg for 
i386, but in my situation, I will need Xorg for both amd64 and i386.
