downloaded the french version of dm2 found in lost treasures fr, then :

- unzipped the folder on my desktop (c:\documents and settings\guillaume\desktop)

- modified theses values in dosbox.conf :
fullscreen=true
cycles=7200

- added these lines at the end :
mount y "c:\documents and settings\guillaume\desktop"
y:
cd dm2

- launched dosbox
- launched "setup" to configure sound in dm2 (soundblaster pro 220/1/7)
- launched "dm2.bat"
- finally, added this ultimate line in dosbox.conf :
dm2

the game is playable if you have a good cpu machine (2Ghz is ok), you can increase cycles if you need.
i still have a problem with sound... lag lag lag :(
