Help installing OS X

[thebluewonderland]

I've spent the last 2 weeks researching anything I can find and tried to prevent having to be "that guy" who has others solves his problems, but I am stuck and I need help.

Here are my system specs:

CPU : AMD FX-8120 (bulldozer architecture, running at 3.1GHz)
MOBO : ASUS Sabertooth 990fx
RAM : 1 x 8GB stick
HD : 2 x 60GB SSD | 1 x 1TB HDD

My intentions are to have a dedicated boot drive for both Windows and OS X (one on each SSD), then use some cross compatible file system format for the HDD (3rd party program if necessary).

Whenever I try to install I run into an issue regarding the DSDT, regardless of what flags I use. I'd like to make my way over to 10.7.4 and use R:A:W:X86's kernel, because I've read that it works well with my CPU, but I can't find a way to install 10.7.4 when starting out on windows. I can't download an .iso from Apple, nor is there an Apple store near me (and I don't know anybody who owns a Mac). I've tried to install on 10.6.0 and 10.6.6, without success from either.

I'll get a picture of the kernel panic in an hour or so, I'm finishing up some things at work, but I was hoping somebody would spot something I'm doing wrong from the info I've given so I can get the ball rolling on this before I get home.

You should know, that there are still some issues with using Lion on AMD Bulldozer. (authorization bug etc.)

Anyway on your CPU it should be possible, to boot into Lion Retail installation.
There are some utilities / drivers that allow HFS access from Windows. (I am not familiar with these, as I haven't realy been using Windows for some years now, but they exist.)
That way you should be able to modify some of the avaible Boot-CD based installation methods for Intel based setups.

As Lion is avaible from the AppStore only, you may want to borrow it via some warez site, until you have "tried" the product.^^

Thanks for the reply. I've got a vanilla 10.7.4 disk now, I also have a disk with modcd on it, but how do I use a lion kernel with modcd?

I used to spend some minutes of my launch time on creating an bootable ISO from latest Chameleon trunk, that includes AMD compatible Kernel:

Dunno if it works at all - testing is up to you. ;D
