I've tested clicking the Install button for a game, and right-clicking the name of a game in the Library list. Both bring up the same install dialog, and neither includes a "Create new Steam Library on Drive X" option in Windows. Perhaps I'm missing something obvious (it wouldn't be the first time), but I don't see any other way to bring up the install menu.
I also just tested this on my laptop, which dual boots with Windows 7, just in case running in a VM made a difference, and got the same behavior as Wine and XP in a VM.
You have to make sure you have several partition, doesn't matter on same HDD or not. It allows you to create on Library per partition as I understand it. So if you have only C:, there's nothing to choose from.
I did confuse things by mentioning the native client. I do get the option to create a new Steam Library on the dropdown list in the Linux client, along with the libraries I've already added, and I may have been mistaken in thinking I had to add the libraries via settings to get the dropdown list in the first place.
Nikolay, when you say you get the option to create a new Steam Library on X, are you talking about the Linux client, or in Windows? Because I don't see that at all in Windows XP or 7, even after I've added new libraries via Settings.
I'm talking about Windows client of course, it doesn't make much sense to compare to Linux native client.
