Hackintosh2000 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Do you have a link for Kext Helper and a Chameleon GUI? Also, where/how do I verify and repair permissions in Disk Utility? Kext wizard is a better utility. You can find it HERE. If you want to download a new theme try THIS ONE. You have to log in to preview it and download it. Here is how you repair permissions through disk utility. There is also a button to repair permissions in Kext Wizard. I believe if you do it on S\L\E after installing some kexts you don't have to repair permissions in Disk Utility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aju Deeju Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 For all guys with Sandy bridge download this and install it and skip the post installation steps except for the installation of the chameleon pkg and a reboot would be fine.......... If any issues please let me know .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drypht Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Well download this file and extract it copy the contents in the extracted folder to the root of your USB....(copy and replace) Did exactly that, and I still get no mouse or keyboard at the install screen... this is really starting to annoy me; everything suggests it should work but it doesn't. Could it be to do with my mobo (GA-H55M-UD2H) or BIOS settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok....delete the extra folder in the root of your installation media and open up terminal in your existing mac and type in: defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUEkillall Finder then open up the root of your snow leopard disk and copy your extra folder into the root of your Lion installation media and install this chameleon to the Lion installation.

mulletman13 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hey all, I get to the select language part of the Lion installation, then after I select the language, it seems like the installer kills all processes and shuts down the machine. Might this have to do with OSInstall.mpkg finding something wrong? Or does it have to do with a hardware issue? kext loading now disabled Kept unloading now disabled Kept auto unloading now disabled Kernel requests now disabled Com.apple.launchd Syncing disks.... Killing all processes Continuing Done CPU Halted Any help would be wildly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
