Most DOS game installations are started by typing "install.exe" and pressing enter.
Now you'll need to start the installation program from the CD.Change "D" to the drive letter you specified for your CD drive, if it's different. At the DOSBox prompt, navigate to your CD by typing "D:" (without the quotes) and pressing Enter.DOSBox should open up, but no games will run. Press OK to save the new game, and run it.Most likely your CD will be drive D and your destination folder will be drive E. Take note of the drive letter for each you'll need to remember them inside of DOSBox.
DOSBOX MOUNT CD ROM INSTALL
Choose your location, and then you should have two mounts: the first being your CD-ROM to install the game from, the second being the folder on your hard drive to install the game to. This will be where you want the game installed to on your hard drive. Finally, click the "Add Folder" button once again to add another mount.If necessary, change the Type of the new mount to "CD-ROM/ISO".Under the Mounts tab, click the "Add Folder" button and open your CD (or if you're working with a disk image, click the "Add Disk Image" button instead).Under the DOSBox tab, check "Use DOSBox to play this game".Add a new game to LaunchBox and specify the title, but leave the "application path" blank.I expect to implement a wizard of sorts in the future to make that process easier in LaunchBox, and I'll take as many ideas from Boxer as I can. I know Boxer does an awesome job of making that process painless and it works tremendously well. Thanks for the compliments Atlantico! Yes, there are certainly a few gaps there with installing games from CDs.
