Alien1959 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Hi guys! 2nd post here, my 1st one didn't have any replies. Trying again, how do I do a clean install of LION on PC? Meaning I have a USB drive loaded with the LION image and chameleon (bootable), and want to do a clean install (NO SNOW LEO installation) on my PC. I have an INTEL and AMD PC. As far as I know, AMD isn't supported because there is no modded kernel right? My intel is an ASUS laptop, i7. nvidia graphics The internet and forums so far show only how to install from an existing installation. Just booting off my USB will give me errors about my bluetooth and 100 retries. Thanks in advance!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owh wow, thanks for the reply, and the link, but one of my problems is that I don't have an existing Mac Install to load the files. The USB key was imaged from a friend. and well, i've tried iATKOS and HaZard releases but they don't boot. Just restart from the cd after loading HFS+ files. Thanks!
