Hi folks,

I recently bought Lemmings2 via ebay. It comes on the original 3,5" discs.

I have dosbox running on my mac pro but I never figured out how to get my external usb floppy disk drive to work with it. Is there a way to use my real floppys or do I have to work with diskimages?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not a Mac guy, but are these links useful?

Never thought this thread would be that long, but now, for something different.....

Something like

mount A /Volumes/floppyname -t floppy

might work. E.g.

mount A /Volumes/LEMMINGS -t floppy
