Don't use a distro as it is extremely unstable.

PookyMacMan Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Thanks for the fast answer. Can I also install OS X 10.7 Lion ? Regards Yes you can; however, you must install Snow Leopard first as Lion is a download from the App Store. Tonymac has a wonderful Lion installation guide here, but if you use my Snow Leopard method, you will make a few tweaks: 1. You will not need [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] unless nawcom's bootloader did not install correctly, and 2. I do not believe you need a Mac Pro 3,1 system definition. Those two points are for people using his [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] method for Snow Leopard, but you won't need them if you use nawcom's (my method).
