Alimdoener Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I want to install Lion fresh on my Lenovo T61. Is it possible to directly install it without having Snow Leopard before. If so, will [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] do the job or is something else required?

Synaesthesia Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Well you can do it if you have a real Mac or another hackintosh only. [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] are really for Snow Leopard only, [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] does have many kexts that work with Lion though. There are basically two things you need to boot Lion: Chameleon bootloader, some extra files. You need the latest version or quite a new version of chameleon to boot Lion, that's all.

Enstriel Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Is there a way to do the restore BaseSystem.dmg file on a VMWare SL/Lion image? Because every time I try to do that, I get stuck at "Verifying" when I restore it, and it just stays there for hours. I've also tried using TransMac to write the expanded BaseSystem.dmg in Windows, but it writes it so I don't have enought memory on the partition left to copy the Packages folder from the Lion.dmg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
