By default no drives are mounted (except the DOSBox default Z:) From here you need to mount your DOSGAMES folder.
This will cause the DOSBox window to appear. Remember that while these files are buried deep in the file system with paths like ~/DOSGAMES/TESTDRV, inside DOSBox they appear as though they reside in the root of their mounted drive letter, so the above example in DOSBox would be located at C:\TESTDRV (assuming that ~/DOSGAMES was mounted as C:).ĭouble click on the DOSBox icon in Finder to launch DOSBox for the first time. Inside this folder we can place all of the programs that we want to be available in our emulated DOS environment. In This example we will call our folder DOSGAMES. The most convenient location for this folder would be your home folder (which can be referenced as ~). Now you need to create a folder to MOUNT as your C: drive and hold your games. Move this folder into your Applications folder. ZIP file and copy the contents into a folder like DOSBox.
