Thumbs up

I LOVE this site!!! Wish I had found it a long time ago!

Anyway, I have quite a few old games that I actually bought when they were new (yes, I'm old... :bleh: ). My husband has a Linux machine with a 3.5 disk drive and most of the games have 3.5 disks (I do have some with 5.25, but I am not going to even try to find a drive for them right now).

Last night we were trying to see about playing these old games using DosBox for Linux.

We can't seem to get it to work right.

Can anyone give me a step by step guide to do this? These games have multiple disks... I have quite a few, but the two I have brought in from the garage are: The Island of Dr. Brain (bought that for my son before he was old enough and then it got stuck in a box and forgotten...so it's never even been played!!), and Freddy Pharkus (can't wait to play that one again!)

HELP?

Thanks!!!
