I've been following this thread with great interest. I currently run SL quite happily on a Pentium D system. I'm really excited about the possibility of getting Lion to go on my old system. I have tried to install Lion from a USB key. With the real Lion kernel I just get a black screen after the kexts have loaded. With the kernel compiled by Wastez (in Post #65, length 15,400,176) I get the same black screen after loading kexts. With AnV's kernel (posted on I.M. length 19,678,036) the boot does go further but I get the same KP as reported by scififan68 in Post #92. I'm using Chameleon v2.0-RC5 r1083 on the USB key. One other note: when I try AnV's atom kernel (mach_kernel_dp4_atom_apic) the boot proceeds past the kext loading, but stops/hangs after the "BSD root:" line instead of KPing.

We're all rooting for you AnV!! Thanks for your efforts.
