Basically from the dosbox command line, type:

MOUNT D \ -t cdrom

mount is the command
D is the virtual drive under dosbox
\ is the physical drive (or E:\ etc)
-t cdrom is the switch so that dosbox knows to mount it as a CDrom (instead of a standard folder)

Can stick it in the autoconfig so you'll always have a CD rom in dosbox.
