Hello,
 
I successfully made OS X El Capitan 10.11.4 USB installer in VMware OS X (host OS win10), copying files to USB drive was quite long, but after about half an hour that was completed, then I put boot pack EFI folder in EFI partition.
 
Then booted  from prepared USB installer, Clover loaded successfully, then I chose normal OS X boot, with enter key, after 20 seconds on black screen appeared white apple and process stops on that, I waited about 5 minutes, there wasnt activity in USB drive (it has flash lights on read-write), then I pressed Esc and was returned to Clover UI. Then I booted OS X without cache and get such screen:

Pressing Ecs returned to Clover UI. Logging was enabled, log file:

it shows as having 11 partitions and 2 EFI's plus chimera (chameleon, stolen and rebranded) seems to also be in the list. try simplify your install. disconnect the drives you do not need at the moment and try again. another thing you can try is moving your ram to the first bank looks like you have one in bank 0 channel A and one in bank 2 channel B

in laptop there are one HDD split in two volumes, first bootable with win10, and second for data, and one SSD in place of DVD, in that SSD I am going to install OSX, I will remove HDD with win10 when booting from USB installer

 

I will remove RAM stick from second bank-channel

 

I created USB installer in host OS win10, VMware Workstation Player 12.1.1, and OS X El Capitan 10.11.4 in VMware. Is there any advice how successfully to create OSX USB installer from with in VMware's OSX?

 

Thank You

Dear Bronxteck, my knowledge of English far away from perfection, I am not sure what do you mean saying:

as for virtual os i guess you would make the installer as you would on a native os. https://support.appl.../en-us/HT201372theninstall clover to the created installer.

 

I guess you encourage to make OS X USB installer in virtual machine's OSX? That I already done according http://www.osxlatitude.com/edp/documentation/pre-installation/, so I should use that USB drive? Yes?

I booted my laptop Lenovo Z70-80 without HDD, as Bronxteck recommended, visually I got same result, Clover loaded, normal OSX boot ended with white apple on black screen, and OSX boot without cache:
