Is there a way to set dosbox to automatically mount a folder, regardless of the drive letter?
E.G. On my computer, my flash drive comes up as M: but on others it shows as E:. Is there a way to auto mount a folder within the dosbox directory without the drive letter?

It's mentioned right on the DOSBox Portable homepage:

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Hi,
If I use StartPortableApps, How to automatically mount the folder which start from "Documents".
For example, if I use the USB disk and already put the dos games on "\Documents\OldDosGames" and the dosbox is on "\PortableApps\DOSBoxPortable", how can I modify the dosbox.conf to mount automatically.
Thanks
Jeff
See the helpful tip on the page under features:

You'd use:
mount c \Documents\OldDosGamesSometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
"mount C ." to "[...]\DOSBoxPortable\App\DOSBox" dir
"mount C .\..\..\" to "[...]\DOSBoxPortable\" dir
[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
mount C .\..\..\Data\driveC\
C:
\Programs\VC4_00\VC.COM
automatically mount C in [...]\DOSBoxPortable\App\DOSBox\Data\driveC\ directory and run file manager "Volkov Commander" at startup (or "Norton Commander" - \Programs\NC4\NC.EXE )
