Are you looking to put together a VMware instance to act as the "pen
test" machine or the victim machine?
If it is the "pen test" machine, then maybe you should look at some of
the knoppix based distributions.  I for one like the Auditer Security
Toolkit.

You can try bochs (bochs.sourceforge.net) or qemu
(http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/).
