Well I got this game. Actually ive got its install.

Now when i try to install it from Harddrive the setup asks from witch floppy drive i want to install from?
The selection is A: or B: but i dont have any floppies to write the game on...

So i cant install from hardrive cause it only allowes to install from a diskdrive...and i dont have any floppies to but the game on?

So i was wondering...is there a way to mount a floppie game?? Or any other solution...

It's in the DosBox readme, if you care to check.
Code:

MOUNT A C:\FLOPPY -T FLOPPY

No problem, I'm sitting here three or more hours every day anyway.

If you have any more problems with DosBox, it is worth checking the official DosBox FAQ. It's pretty much the most in-depth one around.

Yesh...But now i ran into a problem again...

Installer says that the directory where i want to install is not valid.

Exact message is
Error!

The Following path is now valid:
x:\xxx\xxx
Press ENTER and try again.
(not realy x)

Anyway ill read the faq then..

Please tell me your drive mounting configuration in DosBox, and what specific path did you use to install the game to.

I used these lines

Mount a c:\Rex -t floppy

And First i tryed to install on E: then on C: do i have to mount the install directory too?

DosBox can recognize only drives you have mounted in it.
Therefore, if you want to install the game somwhere, that directory also has to be mounted.

Noh...tryed whit 5 different directories...absolutly nothing... Or do i have to do somekind of special mount thing?

What did you mount as your C: drive?
