Firstly, DOS is not a supported guest OS in VPC 2007. It will still run,
though, but there are no Additions for it...
1) Use the wizard to create a new guest
2) Insert the first DOS diskette in the floppy drive or, if your host
doesn't have a physical floppy drive, download a virtual boot floppy.
3) Using the menu, tell VPC to acquire the floppy disk
4) Reboot (Alt-Gr) - the guest will boot from the floppy
5) Just like installing DOS on a real machine, you'll need to FDISK the
virtual hard disk and then format it.
