I'm using the latest DOSBox, I gave my C drive 10GB space, I've successfully mounted the CD drive both through mounting the ISO in DOSBox and through mounting it with Daemon Tools.

All I get is what's seen in these screenshots straight from running the INSTALL program.

Kept getting told by some of the other game installers that it wasn't big enough for full installs. At default I got 250MB but games like Riddle of Master Lu needs more than that for a full install alone.

Ah wait, setting the size to 1GB fixed it. Now I just need to figure out why Riddle of Master Lu keeps throwing an error at me. Nothing the drive size caused, it was doing this anyway

The DOS maximum volume size is 2GB so its no wonder the installer fell flat on its face trying to address 5 times that. Its simply a condition the installer was never designed to handle because it was impossible given the OS imposed limits.

Files ripped from original. I think it's missing files because it's running the installer but has no setup program that it asks for in the error

How are you mounting the iso? Please post all parameters
BTW: Maybe the CD has some kind of protection.
