Hello

Is it possible to make a config.plist file according to Dortania's GitHub documentation, and after this insert the USB stick drive to Vmware virtual machine and check if it's bootable instead of trying to boot the USB OC boot drive to a physical machine. This way, I can avoid the OC stuck on the machine with a black screen or wrong configuration...and avoid also to make harm on my computer by hard rebooting it

Any related answer would be appreciated


Thanks
