dafia333 · #41 08-01-2011, 03:24 AM

this is my first time installing SL and Lion and it was everything thanks to you, and some google.

the only thing i don't know if i did it right was once your done with the installation. i use multi beast so i wouldn't have to be booting from
the usb pen. because i didn't know what else to do.

This what i do when i put extra OSInstall.mpkg in /System/Installation/Packages, i also put Chameleon-2.0-RC5-r755-Lion, Extra Lion.pkg, PCEFI 10.6 Lion+Snow.pkg

and after all installation completed you can see in your System Preperences chameleon like this.

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'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 =\

so it works...FYI the installer didn't see my drives at first but i go a patched ioatafamily.kext, and that fix it.

i went through the post install stuff. but chameleon didn't show up under prefferences. and i couldn't boot from HDD. end up getting multibeast, that fix the HDD boot problem.

Using iBoot legacy and DVD burned with Lion it won't start installation. Using -x -v, got error like in attached image. Do I need an updated version of iBoot (or iBoot legacy) ? I used iBoot Legacy to install SL 10.6 retail, now I am on 10.6.8. My specs are here: http://unixexpert.ro/mac-os-x-10-6-7-snow-leopard.html

Hi All,

I tried to follow the steps in this tutorial and on selecting the lion install partition , i am stuck at a white screen with mouse scroll animation . (Image attached)

I am not using an USB, but an internel partition. Also as my laptop (Samsung q430) does not work with 10.6.6 or above, I did all the steps mentioned in the thread from 10.6.0 retail

Please help

I do not think I would prefer it to detect any interface.
Try starting with the external USB keyboard and mouse.

Do I need to use a Hackintosh running Mac Os X to create Lion.dmg or can I use an actual Mac machine? I have a PowerMac running Leopard.
