So, I've installed it perfectly with mach kernel and Chameleon Wizard but the command -legacy -v arch=i386 npci=0x3000 does not boot it for me. I need a different command.

Specs:

Amd Phenom II x4 965 3.4ghz
Gtx 570
Asus M4A79XTDO EVO Motherboard
4 gigs of ddr3 ram


Edit: Updated with video, see what I see... Feel my rage...

As the guy sais... use chameleon 2.1 2.0 doesnt work with lion

I refuse to let this screw up again, I erased and started over again. I just reinstalled Snow Leopard. Now are there any Kexts from my Snow Leopard side that I am going to want to put in my Lion Harddrive and would I use a tool to do that a kext wizard tool or could I do it manually? Also, can I use Chameleon 2.0 RC5 r747 (pkg) on my Lion harddrive as a bootloader? Is that version new enough? Tell me anything else you may think I might be messing up? I'm on Osx86 dot net right now, which Chameleon bootloader do you suggest me to download from there? Thanks

Also, when I installed my Lion side to the partition harddrive last time the mach Kernel on it won't let me replace it with mach kernel v4, what I did last time was delete Mach Kernel on Lions harddrive than I stuck Mach Kernel v4 in it. Is that normal and the correct way to do that?

Thanks


I'm using Mach Kernel v4 for Amd Phenom II x4 965, is that the correct Kernel for my processor?
I feel I'm so close to getting this thing to work with the help of you guys, I think I'm on my way... Thanks!

So I rushed ahead and did the process again and just realized that something is wrong yet again. For whatever reason my bootloader stays the older version even after I delete the Snow Leopard partition. It makes 0 sense to me and I installed the newer Chameleon onto the Lion but no it wants to keep detecting the old Boot Loader. Any solutions for this dumb bootloader that doesn't want to update to the newer bootloader? So my problems are boot loader related because the freaking bootloader loves to stick with the 2009 version even tho I have a 2012 version of Chameleon that I installed on Lion, I erased the Snow Leopard Partition yet some how Chameleon 2009 version is still there.

My neighbor let me borrow his sata harddrive. Will this process be easier and work with 3 harddrives? 1 harddrive with Windows 7, the other with Snow Leopard and the other with Lion.

Something is not getting along with Snow Leopard now, it refuses to even install Snow Leopard now that I have 3 harddrives... Don't know why. I think my Windows 7 side is to blame. Im backing stuff up and going to run quick-erase in DBAN so all 3 harddrives get a fresh clean so I can start over again. Probably the millionth time I have had to reinstall Windows 7.

I don't know whats going on, because DBAN did not fix the problem. With 3 harddrives in my computer it is not allowing me to install Snow Leopard anymore. Instead I get a weird error now saying Cmos failed 3 times or something saying that. This is very strange... Now I have a bigger headache now.

So first of all You CAN NOT use any SL kexts on lion...it makes sense same as you cant use windows XP drivers on Windows 7... You must use chameleon 2.1 there is a link: http://www.osx86.net/downloads.php?d...YwLnBrZy56aXA= And manually replacing kernel isnt bad :)

Yes you will have less problems with multiple hard drives since nothing will overwrite nothing... Is it refusing showing the HDD in disk utility? if yes...have you set it up for AHCI??? I had this problem since my bios has option for AHCI on port 1-4 and 5-6 and i changed only 1-4
