mwr_allen Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi All, I have tried various install methods to get Mac OS X Lion onto my Sony Vaio VPCEB3F4E laptop recently without luck. I have got as far as actually installing the operating system but no boot and all other methods I have not even got as far as installing the operating system. I have tried installing by a downloaded copy of Lion.dmg, also the AppStore Lion App, BlangSak, iAtkos L1, and I have even tried to update and fresh install Snow Leopard 10.6.6i to get AppStore but no luck there either. My specs are below and I would very much appreciate any help whatsoever. Many thanks in advance. Marcus.
