Apple says you need a VESA 2.0 compliant graphics card.

Many OS emulators are not VESA 2.0 compliant. Check with your documentation and see if VPC5 is.

I ordered the upgrade to VPC5 and didn't get the documentation.

Let us know what you find out.

Even if VPC5 is VESA 2.0 compliant it still may not work...

First and for most, if you only have the image of the CD, you'll still need to get the images of the boot floppies which you can find here:

The installation is not too hard (specially if you have done the NEXTSTEP/OPENSTEP installation before). You'll need to select a couple drivers first, then that lets the CD installer run. Once installed, the set-up assistant is very much like the one for Mac OS X Server (and not that different from the standard Mac OS). If you run into any problems, just post a question and I'll either talk you through it or post a screen shot of how things should look.

I currently have two systems running Rhapsody (a ThinkPad and a dual Pentium system) and have it as a VPC environment. There are a number of apps that make it more like Mac OS X Server 1.0 which I'll post links to later.

Ooh! ooh! Rhapsody for PC! I want, I want, I want!

Wait.... it's not for the general public huh? Where the heck can I find it? Is this going to be another one of those Carracho hunts?

Also if you are wanting to run it on actual hardware, Apple's supported configurations list can be found here:

And just so that you know this can work, here is mine up and running.

Where did you see that? I don't seem to remember seeing that in any of the documentation that I have from Apple on Rhapsody (or from NeXT on OPENSTEP and NEXTSTEP for that matter, seeing as most of the drivers were only slightly modified for Rhapsody for Intel).
