I tried and could not get SQL Server 2008 to install on a Virtual Server 2005 machine. The documentation does not address VS2005, only Hyper-V (at least what I reviewed). I was using the eval edition.
Has anyone had any success, maybe with the express or the earlier CTP releases?
I'd really rather not have to build up a new machine for it.

I don't see how it could know the difference from a virtualized server and a physical one. It should work - the install should not stop you. It is not supported by MS at this time.
I have it running on a Win2003 server Virtual PC 2007 and I have not had any issues. I'm pretty sure this environment is unsupported also.
