I started with an ide drive I pulled out of an old machine running 3.1
(only scsi in my machine, and I wanted a raw drive)
The most twistedist part for me was wondering how to repartition and
install, and then realizing that I needed a dos boot floppy w/ fdisk on it
to boot vmware off of.
I then formatted the new partition (w/ system), shut vmware back down,
used linux to copy the windows .cab files over to the vmware disk (this is
why I needed a raw disk), booted off the dos formatted disk (under
vmware), and began the installation (under vmware).
It really is rather sweet, and you should at least try the demo.
