Mounting a folder from your harddrive

Z:\>MOUNT C C:\DOSGAMES

Mounting a floppy drive

Z:\>MOUNT A A:\ -t floppy

Mounting a CD-Rom drive

Mounting an ISO-File as volume

Z:\>IMGMOUNT E C:\Images\MyImage.iso -t iso

Mounting a CUE/BIN-Pair as volume

If the game plays additionals music tracks from the cd (mixed mode), you can still mount it as an image file. Since ISO can only contain pure data, the image has to be in the CUE/BIN format. You mount it with

Z:\>IMGMOUNT E C:\Images\MyImage.cue -t iso

The BIN-file has to be in the same folder as the CUE-file. It is also possible to use a cuescheet in combination with an ISO and compressed audio tracks in OGG or MP3 format.

Linux

Z:\>MOUNT C ~/DOSGAMES

Z:\>MOUNT D /MEDIA/CDROM/ -T CDROM

Z:\>IMGMOUNT E ~/IMAGES/MYIMAGE.ISO -T ISO

Mac OSX

Z:\>MOUNT C ~/DOSGAMES

Z:\>IMGMOUNT D ~/Documents/IMAGE.toast -t iso
