You can still defile them after you got the salamander stone, and escape the mines through climbing down (I think) the shaft on the lowest level, thus avoiding being killed by the enraged dwarves and the need to return the key to the temple

Correct. However, note that the shaft collapses and becomes unusable after you use it to enter or exit the mines.

Hello all,

I own the original CD-rom and tried to install it again. Unfortunately this failed: if I run instcd from dosbox it just exits, if I run it from windows xp, it says it is not a valid win32 application. Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks in advance.

Yes. I just get the DOS prompt back.

What are your DOSBox mounts?

Sorry for the late reaction, I have been a bit busy.

I have mounted the directory with the dosbox games as c: and the cd-rom as d:.

For most old games this works well, but this one just won't install. I know for sure that I played this game in the past, but I don't have that computer anymore.

Nevermind, didn't read the first post.
SORRY.

Try removing -ioctl from the CD drive mount and mounting the C drive like this instead:

mount c d:\

To switch to the dosgames and / or game folder use the command CD like for this:

cd \dosgames

In whole:
mount c d:\
mount d e:\ -t cdrom
c:
cd \dosgames


Be sure not to delete or modify anything in the root directory (C though, or your Windows installation would be screwed (gotta advise you that with such mount ).
Hope that helps.
