Well, I have never used the -size option. Have you tried mounting without it?

Yes, it works perfect with out it for one minor detail, its way to small for the game i want to install, x-com apoc.

I want to install the full install of it so i can run it with out dosbox. I have no problem runing the game under 2000 just installing it is imposable under 2000.

The readme only says

"-size drivesize
Sets the size of the drive"

it gives no other information as to how it works or how to use it. What info does it want me to give it? Numbers?

2000? 200000000? 2?

Words?

2000kbytes 200000000kbytes? 2gigabytes?

Maybe i am missing something realy simple 😀

Little bit more info, When i put say -size 1000 it makes the size of the Emulated mounted drive as 0bytes. So i assume the -size command works just i dont know what it wants as a variable...

Sorry, I am just as confused as you - but on a slightly higher level:)
This is from the DOSBox ReadMe.txt:

4. To mount a drive with 870 mb free diskspace (rarely needed! experts only):
mount c d:\ -size 4025,127,16513,1700

It looks like the size parameter is some combination of numbers? Disk sectors, tracks, heads, cylinders....???

Thanks 😀 thats perfect...

ya it does look like that kind of info, I guess when they are are emulating the hardware they need to make sure any qurrys to the hardware will give the right info?

Any way thanks for the help 😀

O ya and thanks to the people who made dosbox as well 😀

yes it;s a combination. I advice to stick to the combo I thought of to create 800 mb. Should be enough.

The next version will include a more simplistic view of size (specify it in MB 😀
