I think it is a country issue.. The thing is, I can't type \ (a backslash)

Anyone else have this problem, and anyone know a workaround?

This might be because I have a danish keyboard, but \ usually works fine in other DOS environments..

Please be a little bit more specific...

Do you mean you can't type a backslash in DOSbox itself or you can't type a backslash at all (which I would find very hard to believe)

Here's a little work around.

Open DOSBOX.CONF in notepad and look for the [autoexec] part. (it's a the bottom)

Now type

mount c C:\

Unless you're completely unable to type a backslash, this should work.
Alternatively, you could use my front end which allows you to mount with out typing anything. The link is in my profile
