@awedio Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Here are the steps I followed, it was pretty easy: 1) On my MBPro using Fusion (4.1.1, build 536016), I created an OS X 10.7.2 64 bit vm with the InstallESG.dmg file (instructions used http://bit.ly/vRda5q ) 2) In Fusion, go to Settings, Hard Disk (SCSI), Advanced Options: Uncheck "Split into 2GB files" This can be done before (better) or after you power up the vm. I prefer to have a single .vmdk file 3) Copy the .vmdk file to your Windows machine or NAS etc 4) VMWare Workstation 8: Apply 12/7 Unlocker update from http://bit.ly/upwF6C (I'm using 8.0.1, build 528992) - using this unlocker instructions http://bit.ly/sTxHK2 5) Create new OS X vm using the .vmdk file, Workstation will ask about converting the vmdk to the newer type, I clicked "yes" 6) Start your new vm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebus Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Or you can capture image from real Mac with ie DeployStudio & restore it onto vmdk (used running Snow Leopard for this step) Then create Lion VM using this vmdk sebus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
