Hello,
I'm a proud user of DOSBox 0.7 and I'm testing all of my old programs/games.
Everything is just fine but with GEM (http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Vista/6148/gem.html) I cannot install.
The installation asks for 3 disks specifically labebed.
With mount <bla> <bla> -label "GEM SYSTEM" I can start the first but then it asks for the second that has a different label.
I formatted some floppies and labeled correctly but mounting "a" as "a:\" doesn't read the label of the disk dinamically.
The program doesn't ask for floppy "a" or "b", just a:
Any clue?
Thanks in advance![/url]

Try hitting ctrl-f4 after you changed the floppy. Or use floppy images and
cycle through them (ctrl-f4 as well).
