I installed it onto DOS and got the error
message that it can't run from DOS. Which is a bit weird, as it runs from
the CLI in a DOS window on 9x.
     

Yes, same here booting to dos rather than doze.
Thought is was only my problem. Very little info in the zip.
See what dos-vmac produces by comparison. ;)
   

Be nice if it works, on VPC :)

Suffered a communal fault on the drive D image, lost legacy again. :(
Anywho vpc4 is showing its colours, Vmac-dos runs at a very acceptable 
rate of knots. Startup looks better than booting the classic from the 
ram disk.

So far I can get DOS-Vmac to crash VPC - I see "Welcome to Macintosh"
(rather broken up) before it hangs. It's back to DOS Doom for me :)
I'm using  something called System6 and System7 .dsk files for testing. 
Looks like your going with a sys7.x image?
Finally read the faq's which explains why I've no mouse in vmac-dos. :)

Well vmac kicks worm in the dos department. Sound even (ok, bad sound) 
I'll try vpc2 and 3 for a speed comparsion and I'll pass you the details.

Cheers Michael.
