VMware?

[reflog]

Hey! Thanks for the work you've put into this, very slick script. Is there a chance for a version supporting VMware?

Hi, thanks!

The script relies only on open-source software by design. VMWare make proprietary software, so the script won't be using it. However, the virtual machine created by the script is easy to import into VMWare. You can select vmdk as the virtual disk image format and then attach it to a VM in VMWare or QEMU or Parallels.

Anyone else having problems starting the vmdk in VMWare?

VMWare doesn't support .viso files, and the macOS image is attached to two controllers (SATA and IDE) one of which as a cdrom-raw image. At any rate this is not the appropriate forum for VMWare troubleshooting.
