Did you try making an image file of your original HD on which Sibelius was
installed and using that as a HD with RPCEmu?

I can see that having to use a floppy disc to enable an install would be
problematic! But I'm thinking of when you start with a HD which has
Sibelius installed and working and clone that to a file with a tool like
'dd' or suitable equivalent that captures every detail of the HD. Then use
that image as a RPCEmu 'hard disc'.

Am I correct in understanding that:

A) Once you have installed onto a HD Sibelius *doesn't* require you to keep
using the key floppy? i.e. That the install then runs having found the
relevant 'installed' pattern on the HD.

B) That you could make a backup of the HD in case it failed. Then the
backup would work?
