I have had a look at the community documentation here and there doesn't seem to be any information about how to "Automount" a folder as the C: drive in Dosbox.

Also as a bonus is it possible to automount the cd/dvd drive in the same way?

With DosBox open, type:

config -writeconf /home/user/dosbox.conf (or whatever) then exit Dosbox.

Open dosbox.conf and add (the [autoexec] is at the bottom):

[autoexec] 



mount c /home/user/path/to/folder

I assume you can do the same for just about any command, it seems to be basically a batch file that is ran at launch.
