Currently this project does NO MODIFICATIONS to your system, all it does is generate the files needed for testing inside `./config/ Currently this project does NO MODIFICATIONS to your system, all it does is generate the files needed for testing inside `./config/
## Features
* General warning and info about what you will be needing
* Enable and configure vfio modules
* Configure 2nd GPU for GPU Passthrough
* Dump the selected GPU rom (as some cards require a romfile for passthrough to work), however no rom patching support planned.
* Enable and configure the correct kernel modules
