Hello there,

I've tried to set up DOSBOX to run some aplications that needs real dos modes via my network. I've created a "G:" that is a link to my server data files, but I couldn't manage to make dosbox find this new G: unit.

Is there a way I can make DOSBOX access this G:?

Thank you and keep the good job

ps: my english sucks
