I've currently got 10.6.8 running perfectly in VirtualBox, on an AMD Phenom II system.
However, I've scoured the net and grabbed everything I can find, including several bootloaders (Chimera 1.9.2-1, etc.) and Lion all-in-one images (iATKOS_L2, and Niresh12495-Lion-10.7.3-V2).

For the life of me I cannot get anywhere with Lion on VirtualBox.

Please, ham4ever, could you write a quick howto, or link to where you got your information from.

Thank you,

I have no issues getting 10.6.8 to work in a VM but I couldn't get lion either.

Thanks

i installed lion on an external hd via macbook, replaced the kernel with "bronzovkAnVoodoo_0_9_26",
i was able to successfully boot into lion desktop with command "-legacy -v arch=i386 npic=0x3000"
but the finder seems to be not working, i tried the dp2 finder, no luck either...
i've got 9800 gt, it was natively supported in 10.6.7 on my hackpro, i got full resolution, but everything seems to be very flashy...

can you please give me any suggestion for what to do to make my 10.7.4 work? thanks a lot in advance!

You need to rename (or delete Finder.app from /System/Library/CoreServices and use the DP2 version which is 32-bit)

Is it possible to update from Snow Leopard to Lion 10.7.4 on AMD?

[m4f1050]

Snow Leopard is 10.6.x and Lion is 10.7.x

I believe you can't update from one main version to another unless you reinstall over it, and if you don't erase the partition it should keep your files.
