Basically, MOUNT allows you to connect real hardware to DOSBox's "emulated"

IMGMOUNT
|

A utility to mount disk images and CD-ROM images in DOSBox.
|
||||
|
||||
CD-ROM: either iso or cue/bin is supported:
|

IMGMOUNT DRIVE [imagefile] -t [image_type] -fs [image_format] -size [sectorsbytesize, sectorsperhead, heads, cylinders]

location of the image files to mount in DOSBox. Path is relative to

The following are valid image types:
|
||||
floppy: Specifies a floppy image or images. DosBox will automatically identify the disk geometry (i.e, 360K
|
||||
1.2MB, 720K, 1.44MB, etc.)
|
||||
iso: Specifies a CD-ROM iso image. The geometry is automatic and set for this size.
|
||||
hdd: Specifies a harddrive image. The proper CHS geometry must be set for this to work.

-fs
|

The following are valid file system formats:
|
||||
iso: Specifies the ISO 9660 CD-ROM format.
|
||||
fat: Specifies the image uses the FAT file system. DosBox will attempt to mount this image as a drive
|
||||
in DosBox and make the files available from inside DosBox.
|
||||
none: DosBox will make no attempt to read the file system on the disk. This is useful if one needs to
|
||||
format it or one wants to boot off of the disk using the BOOT command. When using the "none" file
|
||||
system, one must specify the drive number (2 or 3, where 2 = master, 3 = slave) rather than a drive
|
||||
letter. For example, to mount a 70MB image as the slave drive device, one would type:
|
||||
"imgmount 3 d:\test.img -size 512,63,16,142 -fs none" (without the quotes) Compare this with a mount to
|
||||
read the drive in DosBox, which would read as: "imgmount e: d:\test.img -size 512,63,16,142"

This can be any number of floppy disk images one wants mounted after DosBox boots the specified drive letter.

the last disk in the list is swapped out, the list loops back to the beginning.

IPX
|
||||
|
||||
All of the IPX networking is managed through the internal DosBox program
|
||||
IPXNET. For help on the IPX networking from inside DosBox, type “IPXNET HELP”
|
||||
(without quotes) and the program will list out the commands and relevant
|
||||
documentation.
|
||||
You need to enable IPX networking in the configuration file of DOSBox.
|
||||
|
||||
With regard to actually setting up a network, one system needs to be the server.
|
||||
To set this up, in a DosBox section, one should type “IPXNET STARTSERVER”
|
||||
(without the quotes). The server DosBox session will automatically add itself
|
||||
to the virtual IPX network. In turn, for every other computer that should be
|
||||
part of the virtual IPX network, you’ll need to type “IPXNET CONNECT
|
||||
<computer host name or IP>”. For example, if your server is at bob.dosbox.com,
|
||||
you would type “IPXNET CONNECT bob.dosbox.com” on every non-server system.

assigned IANA port for IPX tunneling, for its connection.
