DiskImageGUI and DOSBox
Quite a regular

Hi All,
I am trying to mount an image in DOSBox with the help of DiskImageGUI.
Basically the .iso is mounted under ICD0: and my DOSBox .conf contains the following line : "mount D ICD0: -t cdrom"

all seems to be fine when starting DOSBox but when I type "dir d:" it complains "file *.* not found".

strange because when I issue a "mount" I can see C, Z and D (mounted as CDrom ICD0:/).

my wild guess is that this extra "/" is a MS thing and fooled DOSBox.

Anyone succeeded in mounting image file with DiskImageGUI and DOSBox ?

In my experience you can't mount the root of a volume or device (i.e. path ends with ':') with DOSBox on OS4.

The path ICD0:/ would be ICD0: and one level up which is nonesense since ICD0: is already at root level.

ICD0: doesn't work either since DOSBox probably adds a slash onto the path itself.

If DOSBox was compiled with -lunix then using unix path format (i.e. "/ICD0" instead of "ICD0:") might work.

The solution I usually use though is to copy all the files from the CD into a directory and mount that in DOSBox instead.
