Running Spinrite from Linux?

[Hart Larry]

Hi All:  I have a version 6.0 of spinrite to hopefully fixmy d drive.  However, 
the file is spinrite.exe.  I tried running in windows with jaws, but it doesn't 
talk very well.  From a dos-box inside win98 I just get my c prompt back. 
Spinrite claims their program is compatible with linux, so is their a way to 
run from linux?  I tried some of the extract tools, but no luck?  Thanks so 
much in advance
