How To Boot Virtual Machine From USB Drive in VMWare Workstation Tutorial

In this VMWare Workstation Tutorial, you will learn to boot a VMWare Virtual Machine From USB Flash Drive. VMWare actually does not support booting all the USB drives. You may find that sometimes it lets you boot from some of the USB flash drives and other times it fails.

PLOP is an alternative third-party ISO image that lets users access your Bootable USB Drive during the boot process. But you can boot directly from a USB drive within from VMWare Workstation by using a little trick.

What you need to do is to add an Additional Hard Disk Drive and point your USB drive as a Physical Disc to the newly added drive. Then change the BIOS boot options to boot from the newly added Hard Drive.

In this video, you will learn to add a new Hard Drive to your Virtual Machine and then attach your USB Drive to the newly created hard drive.
