#After I got both CivI and DOSBox working I created a
# script at the end of the Options file to recognize both
# drives (game and cd). It worked, and my drives were
# automatically mounted!

mount g g:\civi
mount d h:\ -t cdrom

# Then I thought I could also automatically switch to the
# game drive and run CivI - w/o having to type it each
# time. It also worked!

g:
g:civ

# Finally, after seeing that when I quit the game, I was
# back in the DOS screen, I thought "well, if the game
# first runs, and then sends me back to the same point,
# maybe I can exit DOSBox as well ... " and it worked!!!

exit

# So the full script at the end of the Options file is:

mount g g:\civi
mount d h:\ -t cdrom
g:
g:civ
exit

# And it ALL works! 😁

(As soon as I get some money I have to donate to the Vogon DOS Empire!)

Just a hint, it's better to use
Mount c ...
for mounting games, some games may not like it if thye are not on c:\ (and some might complain if they are not in a subfolder.
NOT relevant for this game, obviously 😉
