Installation of Lion without SL Help

I know helping noobs such as myself isn't what most people would like to be doing, so I'll make this brief.

 

I don't have SL, but I do have a Lion Boot CD.

I haven't been able to install Leopard (ACPI error), so I'm trying to start out on Lion.

 

I've got a OSX Leopard but without admin, so consider that gone.

 

I've made a +HFS HD within windows (250GB) and placed the Lion onto it, and placing FakeSMC.kexts into it aswell.

 

Starting on [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 3.1 and using verbose mode works, until the kexts have finished loading, in which case my computer then either halts, or restarts (depends on what flags you set)

 

I have heard that using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] is no good with lion, and I should start using Chimera instead. Only problem is, is that I can't open a PKG with a windows machine.

 

(EDIT) Currently I'm stuck on

 

ACPI table not found: DSDT.aml
ACPI table not found: SSDT.aml
FADT: Restart fix applied!
Starting Darwin x86

 

So yea, in a nutshell. Stuck with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]. What Do?

 

System Specs:

i5 Quad

P55-UD3

GTX470

4GB DDR3

-the problem is u need to add some kexts + fixing the perm with KU which is impossible on windows because putting fakesmc by it self won't do u any good.

-about the restarting ,am not sure if [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 3.1 support Lion or not ,but this definitely related to the boot file because it happens with me when i update the chameleon to anything above r1083.

 

EDIT:

-give this CD by Mald0n a try and see will it work or not ,if not u can use the VirtualBox method to install SL on windows then prepare Lion usb through it.

-to get ur dsdt.aml ,u can use dsdt autopatcher for windows to get it.
