Still, if you are careful enough, and you choose the right device in the "GRUB installation drive" ComboBox, all things work fine. I did it many times using external drives to setup a distro I wanted to test. I never enjoyed very much VMs since those are fake installations and many times a real installation on real hardware leads to impredictible results. Virtual Machines, might EMULATE many things, but "many" is very different from ALL HARDWARE.
So what I just told, is "hot tested" many times, on real hardware.
Hope you'll succeed!
