Also, I found out the solution to why I wasn't able to save applications to my apps folder. It was that graphics card kexts I was installing! It was causing issues with my Hackintosh Lion. So, I'm forced to update to 10.7.3 now. I'm updating to 10.7.3 now. All I have to do is replace kernel and the dock after I install 10.7.3 right? 10.7.3 has official drivers that support Nvidia Gtx 570 if I remember correctly. |

Thanks for all your help guys. But this has hurt my brain long enough. I'm giving up on this Hackintosh garbage. Macs an overrated operating system with less software support than Windows. The only reason I wanted it is because I like the look and feel to a mac. But no operating system is worth this much pain. Bye, thanks for you help.

Sorry I failed, I tried. I been trying to get Lion to work forever. I had fun with the 6 months I had Snow Leopard working(last yr before my 470 died). I know operating systems are beautiful from the eyes of the beholder but something just feels plain/boring about Windows 7 to me. Also, I think I preferred Snow Leopard over Lion, they did some little changes I didn't like. I tried Mac themes over Windows but that just doesn't work for me. If my 470 gtx hadn't died, I would still have snow leopard on my computer. Too many problems with Lion I have ran into for me to even try to keep this up. Can't even get the bootloader to work with it properly when paired with Windows 7. I couldn't find a graphics driver to work properly that wouldn't mess up me putting files on harddrives or saving application to the apps folder. And I noticed the sound problems, where things would go out of sync. Just too many issues for me to deal with and some of them seem kind of complicating to try to fix. Also, I was running sound from my motherboard when I have a nice sound card creative x-fi that isn't getting used. Also, it always bothered me with Hackintosh how I could never get 5.1 sound but just 2 speakers working.

Now I don't know what's going on: I tried to install the 10.7.4 combo update, and the same thing happened! (corrupted filesystem) Ideas, anyone?

The corrupted filesystem message happens when you boot your system, or during the installation of the combo?

It happens during boot. I also forgot to mention that the installer claims it failed: there's an I/O error with some temp file in /var/zz. (I think.) If it would be useful, I can reinstall (again) and post the exact error from the log.
Code:

Out of curiosity, what are you guys using to have Windows 7(Harddrive1) and Lion(Harddrive2) boot together? I use a program called EasyBcd. Just wondering if maybe that was my problem or not. EasyBcd is what I used with Snow Leopard when I had a 470 gtx.

I am! But i must confess, my windows 7 installation is on a PATA disk. I have one PATA for Win 7 and three SATA for respectively Lion 10.7, my time machine for both my AMD and my Atom netbook (which backs up to it via network) and a big NTFS 1.5TB for general storage.
I think that your problem is indeed related with Bcd, and the mess happened when you installed Snow Leopard: i think you forgot to disconnect your Windows disk when you first installed Snow Leo, and now the old bootloader survives in your Windows HD, and it doesn't matter how many times you reformat your OSX disk. My best advice would be, if you have all your data securely backed up, to erase windows, reinstall it (remember to disconnect the OSX disk, if it still there) and then disconnect the Windows disk and install Lion with the latest chameleon. |
