Yea XP takes a long time at the start just before copying files.

That's my experience with Vmware 5 and XP, too.

However, in the old times of the DOS bootdisk this behaviour was caused by a missing smartdrv (Disk cache). Maybe the disk caching is very bad in the (host)-vmware-linux-dosemu-winxp combo? Lots of systems are involved here ;-)
