When I do that that is where I get lost. I followed the 60 seconds intructions and it says to type: D:>C: C:>dir C:>mygame I typed E:>C: (because my cd-rom is E) C:>dir After that it displays the c: directory and waits for another command. When I installed it said to get back into the game you type …

where is the include-dir needed for (just wondering). Inside dosbox.rc there is a reference to just 'dosbox.ico'. Without the --include-dir, windres don't know where to look for the ico-file. (and how do you buid dosbox like that ?) $ cd some/random/dir $ $HOME/src/dosbox-0.70/configure configure …

Actually, in Linux config files are supposed to go into the /etc/ directory, but qbix has not yet implemented this. /me slaps qbix around a bit with a large trout. DOSBox itself do *not* need the /usr/bin/dosbox.conf file - it is DBGL that expects the config-file to live in the same directory as …

You can install 0.65 in parallel with 0.70. Then you can test if they work with 0.65.

As far as I know, none of the developers has a Macintosh, so unless you want to donate one, I am afraid that you can expect to wait a long, long time.

The only gotcha is to be careful not to hide a partition "early" in the chain, since that will change the drive letter sequence. A C-drive that suddenly becomes D, an D that become E, etc, will cause havoc.

Ignorance - For your information, your writing styles irritates me a lot! All this 'so anyways' is annoying. So is your lack of proper uppercasing and missing apostrophes in " im " and " its ". It is " I'm " and " it's ". Additionally, in my part of the world, the use of " I'm " and " it's " is …
Mounting a drive creates EMS on Win98, not on WinXP

Seems like the original poster has tested this with clean installs on Win98. Why does DOSBox create EMS when switching from Z:? Would be nice if someone else with Win98 could confirm.

If I remember correctly, the disk swapping works best with images. You mount them all onto the same drive-letter, something like this: Z:\>mount D /path/to/image1 /path/to/image2 /path/to/image3 ,....... and the CTRL-F4 will swap you through them.

Ahh! Well, if ordinary users can not write to /usr/bin, who installed /usr/bin/dosbox.exe then? The /usr/bin/dosbox.conf file is the shared, global DOSBox configuration for your system, and should only be created/modifed by root. It is not an error in the frontend, it is an error in the Linux DOSBox …
