ndiswrapper frontend

WHy? Isn't already on the terget machine, expecting installed WINDOWS which is most likely the case? Just mount /dev/sda1

I was not expecting an installed windows.
The only use for ndiswrapper is to use windows drivers when there is no Linux driver.
That in no way suggests any desire to run windows.
My experiences with windows drivers under Linux have been less than satisfactory.

Few years ago I used ndiswrapper on my Windows Vista notebook when WiFi chipset was not supported. I alternatively booted SLAX from USB and used ndiswrapper. It is a realistic scenary for sure in the beginning when someone is playing with LINUX but do not want to put it production.
