I did it! \o/ Thanks guys!
Erased my SL partition. Updating was a bad idea. A fresh install and booting from the USB stick and selecting my new Lion installation worked fine.

Now I am going to do the post installation procedures.
EDIT: I can only boot from USB. Booting from HD makes Lion "Waiting for DSMOS" for ever. :(

You mean, you want it to boot verbose everytime? I think you can tweak Chameleon to do that. Check if you have it on System Preferences.

Then I copied /boot file from my USB install stick to / and I was able proceed after 'Waiting for DSMOS' message but from a text mode Chameleon...

EDIT: I forgot to mention that Chameleon didn't work with this /boot file, I used Chimera bootloader from Muiltibeast 3.8.0.

Well, at least I don't need the USB stick anymore. ^_^
Thanks guys.

Congrats bro,:)

this is the only fix when i encountered any error in boot up on my HDD,

Quote:

a. Install Extra_Lion.pkg to HDD
b. Install Chameleon 2.0 RC5 -755.pkg to HDD
c. Install PCEFI 10.6 Lion+Snow.pkg to HDD
After installing "a , b, c" on my Flash drive i always create a folder "Extensions" inside /Extra , and i paste (ElliottForceLegacyRTC.kext, fakesmc.kext, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext)
by the way this is my Chameleon settings in system preferences , this settings boot my machine like a real MAC MACHINES:cool:

"mac os x can't be installed on this computer"
 
this guide has help me the most than any other guide. did all the steps listed.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3728089/IMG_0112.JPG

only deviations is Chameleon-2.0-RC5-r947_VS [from kexts.org] instead of Chameleon 2.0 RC5 -755.pkg
i'm using a dell xps 420. ich9r
and i was using kalyway 10.5.2 install to do all the prep work.

i read that..

I had the same issue as you. Once i read your update I realized that the installer was looking at your smbios.plist. You need to change it from MacBookPro4,1. I have mine set to an iMac. I just copied mine from my original Snow Leopard, and I have booted up to the Lion welcome install screen.

EDIT: Successfully installed Lion! Just had to copy my original SL smbios.plist and com.apple.boot.plist file over to get it to boot properly.
i'm not using SL as noted above but the 10.5.2 kalyway. so i can't copy my existing boot.plist. BTW the lion installer i download has a prohibition sign (/) over it, i'm guessing since i'm running 10.5.2 so it won't let me run it.

so can i download the boot.plist of a SL and replace it? or can i edit the boot.plist to say MacBookPro4,1?

PLEASE HELP. i've been at this for almost a week =\
