Hello:
I seem to remember that there was an easy way to mount a local win
directory inside VMWare (as an extra driver or whatever), but I can't
find the reference, could someone give me a clue?
I am not interested in something elaborate such as using the network
bridge. Something as simple as to

Hi Aitor,
This is not OT at all :)
if you are using FreeDOS in VMware, there is no way of doing it.
Alternatives are:
- dosemu: it can do it very nicely
- use ftp from Eric Engelke, it is only 45k
- msclient, worst of all, but it should work.
VMware can do that only for XP and it is a XP specia

Thanks to both, I knew the DOSEMU stuff, and was new to VirtualBox!!
Incidentally, some minutes later I've found it, it is called DiskMount:

and it is a pure commandline tool that works acceptably ok. It does
just that: mounts the disk onto
Interesting... can you use it to mount directories or only disks and/or
partitions? It makes a big difference because a disk cannot be accessed
by two OSes...

I have only superficially explored it all, but apparently you can only
mount entire VMDK disks, and probably (reading the /?) you can mount
its separate partitions. But I guess once you mount some partition you
cannot use it to boot VMWare, unless you have umounted everything.
