Ozai Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 And if so, could you please provide me with the correct tutorial? I've been following this tutorial with no success: after following every step and rebooting from install drive, Am having the "This version of Mac OS X 10.7 cannot be installed on this computer". Can you please elaborate? Best, Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/271551-is-it-possible-to-upgrade-from-sl-1063-to-lion/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

xx66stangxx Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 "This version of Mac OS X 10.7 cannot be installed on this computer". Why don't you just update to 10.6.8 then purchase/install Lion?

Ozai Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 Why don't you just update to 10.6.8 then purchase/install Lion? Because I don't wanna take a risk and get a KP. Then I'll have to waste 100's of of hours trying to figure out a solution, and I'll be left with no computer practically. SL is the only working OS I have on my machine. What about this Gringo: It's a diff. method than the famous [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] + Xmove. I walked thru the tutorial step by step. managed to install successfully then rebooted, but I'm stuck at a KP (appleintelcpupowermanagement).. I've gotten to the boot process as far as "DSMOS has arrived" msg and then nothing happens. You can type anything, the keyboard is working but can't get past that stage. Id love to hear your opinion on this.

Gringo Vermelho Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 That's not what you asked for, the video shows a clean install, not an upgrade. When you buy Lion from the App store and run the installer (on 10.6.6 - 10.6.8) you get to keep all your stuff, installed apps etc, everything keeps working the way it was.

xx66stangxx Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Also if you are worried about getting a kernel panic then make a carbon copy of your hdd.

Ozai Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 That's so f$$$$ frustrating. Lion was working like a charm yesternight, this morning I was Making my coffee, went back from the kitchen, Pc went to sleep and wouldn't wake. I reboot, KP! Wtf? Idk what's someone like me, who makes over $7500 a month doing here really. Wasting my precious time on a miserable piece of garbage that we like to call a hackIntosh. I'm such a cheap wretched loser. I'm done with this. I'll just order the real deal from the apple store manhattan. Not worth the time and stress. Thanks for everyone who tried to help, some people here are really amazing. I wish you guys all the best.
