Experiment with UML (User Mode Linux) and Gentoo. There's a good chance
that if you get a minimal gentoo system running, then tell it to install
the packages you need such as tetex 2.5, it will hopefully work fine.
The portage system *should* resolve the necessary dependencies.
As I say, I haven't done this. But it's an idea to play with ... and if
you can get UML running you can easily run an old setup as a program
inside Dapper :-)

Gentoo currently has support for Lily 2.0.3 -- in fact, that is the
latest version marked "stable" in the Gentoo build tree!
