Now, on to the fun stuff I was pretty excited about the VMWare Workstation 11 release, after all it's been hyped up to be.

If I have time in the immediate future, I will work on a guide for both Yosemite and Mavericks. This is not a guide, just an information post for my fellow Insanelies. OK, Let's start this off with a disclaimer. I'll keep working at it, but I need help. Additionally, the VRAM amount varies from 3 MB to 484 MB, but that may also be a product of the way the system is currently booting. I can boot the guest with using the USB install stick as a bootloader of sorts, which leads me to believe we can make some mods and have a fully booting OS X Guest. Right now, the install works, but once it's done and the guest reboots, it hangs once the progress bar get's nearly halfway. I'm hoping to get help from my fine friends here on InsanelyMac with the rest of the process getting the post-installation boot to work. With all this being said, I started this thread out of my excitement to finally be able to go at least go through the install process without having to modify any part of the boot process with unlockers, or command-line attributes. More work by people with a little more knowledge than me will have to be done. They simply won't boot, giving a weird error.

You can't simply upgrade your previous OS X guests to VMWare 11 guests.

There is a not-so-nice detail to add here: I have tested it with my installation of Yosemite, but the results have been mixed (more on this later).

We can allocate more than 128MB of VRAM to VM Guests.

Just like VMWare Workstation version 10, EFI boot works flawlessly.

I was able to actually install Yosemite natively, using Plop Boot Manager (to boot from usb).

OS X boots without the need for unlocking VMWare.

VMWare Workstation 11 is here! And along with it are some interesting things to note.
