TinySID 0.2 with HardSID support can be installed quit easily:

    -	copy xhardsid.dat to somewhere nice like /usr/local/bin
	(mv xhardsid.dat /usr/local/bin)
    -	apply executable rights
	(chmod +x /usr/local/bin/xhardsid.dat)

You should be set now. Be sure to run TinySID as root as the progam requires
direct access to /dev/port. You could make /dev/port public, but this isn't
really such a good idea (fat security hole).

If you still want to run it as a regular user, i recommend (sort of) to make the
xhardsid.dat executable setuid. You can do this by doing: chmod +s /usr/local/bin/xhardsid.dat
The program can now be run as normal user, but it will run with root priveleges! 
You have been warned.

TinySID was programmed by Rainer Sinsch. Good work!
