Fresch GM installation - what's needed

[Alimdoener]

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?

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.

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
