Just got a copy of Gunmetal in today, and used MagicISO to create a bin/cue of it.
Mounted into 0.74 w/ the following:
mount c .\games\Gunmetal
imgmount d .\games\Gunmetal\cd\gunmetal.cue -t cdrom
starting up dosbox, switching to the d:, and running "install" returns:
DOS/4GW Protected Mode Run-time Version 1.97
Copyright (c) Rational Systems, Inc. 1990-1994
DOS/4GW fatal error (1004): syntax is DOS4GW <executable.xxx>
I searched that error on here, and no thread every resolved it. Almost every case was blamed on the OP not mounting correctly, or trying to run DOS4GW straight, and not the actual game file.
Using the debugger, this is the logfile export:

Interestingly, the game seems to run fine if I just run "gun.exe" straight from the cd drive, however it is impossible to save your game at that point.
