I use ADE 1.7.2 with WINE on Debian Linux, I didn't need to do anything special to install it.

There is a little trick where I have to change the drive type in the WINE configuration to floppy disc if I want ADE to see my mounted ereader device, but that is only needed when first authorizing the device or when transfering DRM ebooks from computer to device, not for other uses.

ADE, Calibre, and tools all work for me in Linux, no need to boot another operating system.
