so i have a mac and vmware fusion/boot camp so i also run Vista. i have a 2 gig song collection on the mac partition and i don't want to copy it over to the windows side though i can because i'm running out of room.
i have my songs folder in a shared files folder, and in order to access that easily i mapped it to a drive (Z). i can't use a junction to fake it as it won't let me access drive Z to do this, and i can't figure out how to use symlinks because i couldn't get THAT to use drive Z either!
so, what could i use? any suggestions/ideas?

I didn't really understand (I'm French), but have you tried to force the song library in the fretsonfire.ini?

Open your fretsonfire.ini, and under [game], add this line (or modify if there is one):

base_library = Z:\Frets on Fire\data

(or your actual folder where 'songs' is located, don't add "\songs" after "\data", just say in which folder the 'songs' folder is).

I remember that ingame, it refuses to use another boot that the one in which FoF is, but that you can force it by the fretsonfire.ini...

It's because you didn't play with the FoF.exe associated with it :D
Try to launch the game, change some options and do Apply. Then close the game and look your fretsonfire.ini
