Hmm. FreeDOS should run on a vmWare virtual disk without any hassles. Except then your emulation speed is limited by VMWare (which is definitely NOT up to the task of running SS. Tried that 3 weeks ago, with both FreeDOS and MSDOS6.2. Also tried the M$ Virtual machine)
Personally, I'm a fan of the old HDD cradle concept Again, with the caddies, no use as my primary array is RAID0
Trust me, I looked at all sorts of solutions to run SS. This is, by far, the easiest and fastest.
DOSBox is NOT an alternative OS. It's a DOS Emulator.
