Checking if you can run Mac, Windows, and Linux on a bare metal VMWare setup makes sense. You mentioned whether there’s any mix-up about starting VMWare first or arranging the installations.

It’s simple to set up Windows and Linux virtual machines. OS X is more challenging and doesn’t seem worth the effort in my view. That’s why I use an MBP for OS X and rely on VMware Fusion to build VMs for Windows and Linux when needed.

Setting up Windows and Linux virtual machines follows the same steps as on physical devices. I haven’t tested installing MacOS VMs on non-Mac systems.

I didn't reference anything about Hackintosh.

I've attempted to set up an OSX virtual machine with VMWare Workstation, but it's proving quite challenging to get everything running smoothly.

This was my thought process, and it explains why I haven’t tried it yet. At work I can quickly access a Mac Mini and spin up virtual machines, which is straightforward.

VMware confirms full support for virtualizing macOS on Apple devices, though their guides are lacking.

It seems you're unsure about how something would be done. Could you clarify your question?

i don't rely on vmware; virt-manager and virtualbox offer ways to transfer the host hardware type to the virtual machine

That’s unclear. It’s not specified if you’re trying to run all three virtual machines together or test them separately. Clarify your goal so I can help better.
