I'm setting up DOSBox to use my menu program, but I'm struggling to mount my C drive like I did in Windows. In Windows, I could easily mount my DOS folder at C:DOS by just using MOUNT C C:DOS. Now that I'm using Linux Mint, I have my DOS folder located in the Documents folder within my Home folder, but I'm not sure how to mount it in DOSBox. I've tried commands like MOUNT C /home//documents/DOS, but I keep getting a 'directory doesn't exist' error. I realize that Linux is case-sensitive, so I was using the correct cases, but I'm still learning the Linux file structure and would appreciate some help!

Just a heads up, Linux is case-sensitive, so make sure you're using the correct cases for the directories. "Documents" isn't the same as "documents". It sounds like that might be the issue you encountered. So when you mount, keep an eye on the capitalization!
You're on the right track, but you should use the command: MOUNT C /home//documents/DOS instead of what you tried. Linux paths start from /home/ for your user folders. You can type "ls /" in the terminal to see the root directory structure, which might help clarify things!
I tried that but it still says directory not found. I think I was miswriting the path. Thanks for the help! I updated my post.
