hi, i mounted a folder on my HDD as C:\ with currently (as stated by windows) 1,03GB free disk space. then i tried to install x-com apocalypse (but i think it doesnt matter) and the setup said, that only 105MB are free on C:\

can i somewhere set up the amount of disk space used at mounting?!

in the readme on mounting it sayd that to mount 870 mb, you put in -size 4025,127,16513,1700. I don't see how this makes any sence. i didn't see it explain why...if i did the math right (ignoring the fact that the commas aren't in the right place) if this were in bytes, it would be 3660 gigs...I'm confused. how do the numbers relate to one another? and how do you igure out what the values of other sizes (other than 870) would be?

just use the data 😀 If you want an explanation read the source luke.

Anyway next version off dosbox will allow you to specify the size in mb's
so no bothering anymore. (old one will be available offcourse)
