First question is should this be possible? That is to run a Snow Leopard (10.6.x) guest in VB on a late 2016 Macintosh running Sierra.

If it should be possible, then please help me get past the dreaded 'Still waiting for root device' error.

I have tried two different install disk images, both made with Disk Utility on a machine running Snow leopard natively. One is a .cdr ripped from a retail boxed 10.6.3 DVD, and the other is a .dmg ripped from a 10.6.7 installer DVD that came with my early 2011 MBP. In both cases the symptom was the same. On trying to boot the installer, it just hangs with 'Still waiting for root device'. If I can make this work I was planning on buying Snow Leopard Server just to not run afoul of the EULA, but I want to know that it will work before I spend the money.
In setting up the VM, I mostly selected the defaults. I increased the HD size to 100GB. For the version, I tried both the 32 bit and the 64 bit Snow leopard selections. I have tried unchecking the Floppy and making sure the Optical is first. I have tried changing the optical drive to different SATA ports.
I saw some stuff in the forum about setting a serial number to a known valid one for the guest OS and other trickery to make the VM look like a machine that would run the guest OS natively, but I don't see how to do that with the GUI. I do have a 2011 machine that came with Snow Leopard that I could copy such things from.
