If you boot of an Ubuntu live CD or USB stick, then you can mount the hard drive partition you have your root ( / ) partition on and change the path that is your root from the live partition to your hard drive partion using chroot. You could then try to continue the install (optionally uninstalling wine first). Seeing your new comments though, I would advise against doing this yourself as you could break your system. -- John Stevenson jr0cket.com leanagilemachine.com
