- Improved Apple DMG format support including MAC OSX 10.5. Some minor improvements and bug fixes. Can mount ISO NRG BIN/CUE MDS.
- That’s it, now you should have an “Mojave.iso” disk image file on the Mac desktop which is the macOS installer ISO image. If you intend on using the ISO file for a virtual machine, you simply need to select the Mojave.iso disk image in the virtual machine app as a boot disk, or mount it within the VM as any other disk image would be.
With a bootable Ubuntu USB stick, you can:
Osx Mount Iso
- Install or upgrade Ubuntu, even on a Mac
- Test out the Ubuntu desktop experience without touching your PC configuration
- Boot into Ubuntu on a borrowed machine or from an internet cafe
- Use tools installed by default on the USB stick to repair or fix a broken configuration
Qemu-system-ppc can run the PowerPC versions of Mac OS 9.0 to 9.2 and OSX 10.0 to 10.5. Qemu can also run some OSX release previews. The status of various guests based on the latest builds available from the forum.
Creating a bootable USB stick is very simple, especially if you’re going to use the USB stick with a generic Windows or Linux PC. We’re going to cover the process in the next few steps.
Apple hardware considerations
There are a few additional considerations when booting the USB stick on Apple hardware. This is because Apple’s ‘Startup Manager’, summoned by holding the Option/alt (⌥) key when booting, won’t detect the USB stick without a specific partition table and layout. We’ll cover this in a later step.
MOUNT.COM is a command inside DOSBox that can connect physical folders and drives to virtual drives inside DOSBox. The mounted drive does not automatically refresh files changed out side of DOSBox. You can refresh these files on all mounted drives by activating the Swap Image event (Hot key: Ctrl F4) to have access to changed files automatically when, for example, the drive is mapped as a floppy.
When you enter the command MOUNT from the DOSBox Z:>
prompt you should see:
By default, the MOUNT command will not be recognized at the C:>
prompt.
To mount a folder as a drive, follow this basic template:
The local directory can be specified relative to the working directory from which DOSBox was started.
To unmount a drive, follow this basic template:

If the game plays additional music tracks from the 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 CUE/BIN format. You mount it with
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 compressed audio tracks in OGG or MP3 format.
Mounting multiple images (ISO or CUE/BIN)
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.
Linux
Users of the current version of Ubuntu (9.10 Karmic Koala) may notice that the above command doesn't work. This is because CD-ROMs are mounted based on their label and do not share a common mount point. Open the CD-ROM in Nautilus (or your preferred file manager) to determine its label. Use this command instead, replacing values as appropriate for your system:
Note that the Linux path is absolute and case-sensitive. If you insert a disc in the CD ROM or DVD ROM drive and mount it on your Linux system, or have it set up to auto-mount when the disc is inserted, then use Nautilus to browse to the /media directory, you will see the label of the CD as a folder therein. For example, a DOOM II disc shows up as /media/DOOM2_V17A. The disc label in this example is 'DOOM2_V17A'.
Mac OSX
The quotes around pathname can be omitted if CD name has no special characters.
