I had the same problem.
My workaround was to edit the conf file...

I created a folder "dos" when connected to my PC
Open the terminal and type

1$ cd ./dosbox
2$ vi dosbox-0.73.conf

At the end of the file ([autoexec] part) I added the following lines:

1mount c /home/users/MyDocs/dos
2c:

When I open DosBox it mounts the c partition and goes there automatically now.

Hope it helps
