'''MOUNT.COM''' is a command inside DOSBox that can connect physical folders and drives to [[Drives|virtual drives]] inside DOSBox. When you enter the command MOUNT from the DOSBox prompt you should see<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>MOUNT<br />
Current mounted drives are:<br />
Drive Z is mounted as Internal Virtual Drive</pre></code><br />
<br />
To mount a folder as a drive, follow this basic template.<br />
<code><pre>MOUNT [Drive-Letter] [Local-Directory]</pre></code><br />
<br />
The local directory can be specified relative to the working directory from which DOSBox was started.<br />
<br />
To unmount a drive, follow this basic template.<br />
<code><pre>MOUNT -u [Drive-Letter]</pre></code><br />
<br />
= Usage Examples =<br />
<br />
== Windows ==<br />
=== Mounting a folder from your harddrive ===<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>MOUNT C C:\DOSGAMES</pre></code><br />
<br />
=== Mounting a floppy drive ===<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>MOUNT A A:\ -t floppy</pre></code><br />
<br />
=== Mounting a CD-Rom drive ===<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>MOUNT D D:\ -t cdrom</pre></code><br />
<br />
=== Extra CD ROM options ===<br />
-t [floppy|cdrom] Define how the mounted folder should behave to the emulated operating system.<br />
-usecd [drive #] For direct hardware emulation ie: audio playback, etc.<br />
-cd = Generate a list of local CD ROM drive's "drive #" values<br />
-label [name] = Set the volume name of the drive (all caps)<br />
-ioctl = Lowest level of hardware access (Win 2K, XP and Linux)...follows the -usecd command<br />
<br />
Z:\>MOUNT D D:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl -label GAME_CD<br />
<br />
=== Mounting an ISO-File as volume ===<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>IMGMOUNT E C:\Images\MyImage.iso -t iso</pre></code><br />
<br />
=== Mounting a CUE/BIN-Pair as volume ===<br />
If the game plays additional music tracks from the cd ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_Mode_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 [[Cuesheet|CUE/BIN format]]. You mount it with<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>IMGMOUNT E C:\Images\MyImage.cue -t iso</pre></code><br />
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 [[Cuesheet|compressed audio tracks]] in OGG or MP3 format.<br />
<br />
=== Mounting Multiple Images (ISO or CUE/BIN) ===<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>IMGMOUNT E C:\Images\MyImage1.iso C:\Images\MyImage2.iso -t iso</pre></code><br />
<br />
When mounting multiple images (useful for any application which requires discs to be swapped while it is running), you can then switch between the mounted disk-images by pressing Ctrl+F4 (by default) while your application is running.<br />
<br />
== Linux ==<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>MOUNT C ~/DOSGAMES</pre></code><br />
<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>MOUNT D /MEDIA/CDROM/ -T CDROM</pre></code><br />
<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>IMGMOUNT E ~/IMAGES/MYIMAGE.ISO -T ISO</pre></code><br />
<br />
== Mac OSX ==<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>MOUNT C ~/DOSGAMES</pre></code><br />
<code><pre>Z:\>IMGMOUNT D ~/Documents/IMAGE.toast -t iso</pre></code><br />
<br />
== Using your mounted drive ==<br />
To change to the newly mounted virtual drive simply type<br />
<code><pre>[Drive-Letter]:</pre></code><br />
<br />
For example (If you mounted a Local-Directory to the Drive-Letter '''C''')<br />
<code><pre>Z:\>C:</pre></code></div>CocavArcoo
