With VMWare Player, you just need a "virtual disk" which is a file that
contains a (potentially bootable) filesystem. Unfortunately, with VMWare
Player, you need to install the player on the host machine in order to
get it to work. You might look into other virtualization and/or
emulation options like Bochs to see if you can get something working
that does not require drivers to be installed on the host before
launching the guest.

If, as Todd reports, the JVM can be installed to a USB stick, Id just go
with that: pick a port that's unlikely to be used by the host machine
(like 80801) and use that for your setup. Avoid using anything other
than Tomcat and I think you can get Tomcat to auto-adjust the port
number by finding the next-highest available port if the one you specify
if already taken: your demo-launch procedure should take care to detect
the port number chosen, and configure itself accordingly.
