Looks good you must try Lion mate! Just to be sure send me the Specs but so far the only problem might be the gpu. Good Luck!Quote:

Well, I always thought Lion is upgrade only, as I couldn't find it anywere.
It is a lenovo 220i, with an Intel 2310M and a HD3000, Intel® QM67 Express chipset and Intel WLAN(without CD/DVD drive). Currently I am following this guide but I am stuck at point 8. When I start the osx installer, the apple logo appears for a very short amount of time but then the pc restarts. I tried it with -x but that doesn't help. Using the iBoot legacy version, I get kernelpanics using either of the options -x PCIRootUID=1.
I appreciate your help.
EDIT: I found this thread which doesn't look good at all.

Good thread:)
Is it possible to install using Lion on a Macbook black using this ?
Or this only works to build desktop and regular laptops with osx??
Thanks

:)
ONLY TO BE USED ON A REAL APPLE PC // NON-HACKINTOSH!!
This is the version I have used LINK by all means you can get it from different sources, If anyone is having difficulties installing let me know ill make a video....
You should be able to burn a bootable image from this DMG....
Use these instructions:
Right click on “Mac OS X Lion” installer and choose the option to “Show Package Contents.”
Inside the Contents folder that appears you will find a SharedSupport folder and inside the SharedSupport folder you will find the “InstallESD.dmg.” This is the Lion boot disc image we have all been waiting for.
Copy “InstallESD.dmg” to another folder like the Desktop.
Launch Disk Utility and click the burn button.
Select the copied “InstallESD.dmg” as the image to burn, insert a standard sized 4.7 GB DVD, and wait for your new Lion Boot Disc to come out toasty hot.
It is important that you burn your Lion boot disc or backup the Lion installer prior to installing Lion itself. If left in the Applications folder the installer will be removed after the Lion installation is completed. If you are reading this article after upgrading to Lion all is not lost. A fresh copy of the Lion installer can always be re downloaded from the Mac App Store by clicking on the Purchased tab with the Option key held down.
With the Lion boot disc you can boot any Lion compatible Mac, and install 10.7 just like you installed previous versions of Mac OS X. You can even use Disk Utility’s Restore function to image your Lion boot disc image onto a external drive suitable for performing a clean install on a optical-drive-less MacBook Air, or Mac mini. Clean installs with Lion are easy once you find where Apple has hidden the boot disk.
I have changed the hardware config of my hackintosh a little:
out with the NV9800GTX+ & in with a AMD 5450 passive cooled
also in with a broadcom chipset TP-Link wireless N card - was lucky enough that was auto recognised as AirPort extreme or something like that! :)
I also ditched the 2x 74GB Raptors in RAID0 & went with a single RaptorX :cool: I also put in a pithy 36GB Raptor which I will make as a scratch disk for PS! :)
I have obviously needed to re-install OSX... on 10.7.2 atm; tomorrow I will attempt to update to 10.7.3 :para:
I will be loading the hack up with FCP10 & CS5.5 :D
@davidkozat: have you ever tried iATKOS? That is what I'm using. Any/all 'driver' issues I fix after OSX install - I use multibeast after OSX install to get audio working. I still need to install PS CS5.5 - but I have a sneaking suspicion that GPGPU won't work in PS :( :shakes: I'm quite desperate to get it to work! :( :yepp:
oh &..I OC'd the hack.. but it still doesn't want to boot into OSX when it's OC'd :down: :mad:
:wave:
Great to here from you Tiro! I have tried iAtkos versions before, but I find them to be very large and I prefer to use Unibeast as I find it really easy and almost never fails, Am not sure if the 5450 card will support GPGPU, I know the latest multibeast has fixed a lot of problems with Nvidia cards, also your OC problem are rather strange Hardware OC shouldnt be coursing your OS not to boot as it tends to be more stable on Hackintosh in the first place, are you sure you dont do abything else on the BIOS that might be problematic also what actually happens when you OC? No Boot?, or Kernel Panic....??
Good Luck!! :up:
hey how easy is it to run dual video cards on hackintosh? I'm thinking about 1x 5450, 1x 4350 - how do-able is this? :)
Well tonymac and macman have just release the latest chimera 1.9.xx and I supports more than 1 Gpu some people have 3, so as long as the cards have support should be difficult to get them working :) I'll look in to it laterQuote:

I have seen videos at youtube and done everything there, i can select the image but i can never select the destiny, i must buy a dvd i guess
Ok so I got 2 questions:
Are you trying to install Lion or Leopard? if Lion then you can burn a copy to a Dvd like I mention before, or use the Unibeast method like on the video I uploaded previously...
if it Leopard then, you will have to burn an image to a DVD...
By the way are you installing it to a Apple PC or a Hackintosh??
IIm installing it to a Apple pc, im trying to upgrade the osx tiger i got there to osx leopard and then i will install lion, i think im doing it correctly rigth?Quote:

Alright well as long as you got a Lion compatible mac all you got to do is burn image to a DVD and boot from it, of course make a back up of your data, and then install it like any other bootable image :)
PS you don't need to have any pre OS installed.

I got Macbook black with 2 gb of ram, i ve read and it seems there are people with osx lion on this..
the detailed instruction are above in a step by step post I made; you got to burn the image inside Lion called InstallESD.dmg inside the folder Sharedsupport, with the Disk Utility on mac.
Ill make a Video on How to do it on a Mac later on the weekend too busy at work right now.
Good luck!!
Thanks already burned it but says i cant install this using tiger, if i format the disk will i be able to install Lion?Quote:

Well i tried first to upgrade to leopard, i boot from the dvd but it just gets stuck at apple logo and a whirl twisting, it just wont load the dvd.. what migth this be?Quote:

If it doesnt boot the Lion disc.... am not sure, it might be the DVD wasnt burned properly?... try an external DVD reader if you got one? always had problems with SuperDrives.... so I took mine off and added an extra SSD, I use an external disc drive to burn and load Dvds....

Im using snow leopard, it is show also at the desktop menu and at the boot menu pressing the option key but when i press osx install dvd it just loads and gets stuck at apple logo like that image, dont know if the dvd isnt well burned or if it´s just the macbook that isnt reading it properly because i dont want to waste more money at dvd´s for nothing..
Ok it seems to me that your SuperDrive is not reading or writing properly mate, I suggest using an external one.. or using an external HDD and loading it with the image, then connecting it throw the USB or FireWire and booting from it. I will explain how to boot the Lion installer from a USB device at boot up so you can install it easier, if you can find a spare external DVD reader for your mac.
OK so I found a link that explain better than me how to install it throw DVD or USB

I Dare you to buy a Laptop that isnt Hackintasible! I double dare ya! Nowadays most laptops with the second Gen Core i5/7 come with the HD 3000 gpu allowing installation of Hackintosh much easier and effortless, so there is no excuse to go without trying it if you fancy OS X on your laptop or PC!! Of course always check http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page for hardware and PC compatibility!! :D happy Hackintoshing!!
After i used a 2009 Macbook Pro for about 3 years, i tried to install OS X 10.7.4 on my desktop station, equiped with I7 990x, Asus R3BE, 6GB Dominator GT and a nvidia 275.
After some problems with the drivers everything works now pretty well and damn fast. A pretty good how to you will find over at tonymacx86.com, which i used to.
Now i have a Desktop with maybe more power than a regular Mac Pro for much less money :)
This is quite sad, I was just banned from TonyMacx86, for suggesting a method of installing Mountain Lion DP... someone ask me where I got it from and all I said was...
I rather not disclose my source as to not get in trouble by the legality of how I obtained it...
And apparently I been permanently Banned for, get this ... : Blatant Disregard of forum policies on Unreleased Software or Developer Builds.... You know what?? Tonymacx F*** YOU!!!
SO they believe, any other way to do something is the incorrect way and, you shall be banned for suggesting it.
Therefore I shall drop my support from http://tonymacx86.blogspot.co.uk/ as they clearly no longer share my ideology of educating people, but to commercialise their Open Source material, which is a basic copy of Chameleon re-modified for their purposes...
People that Ask me to help them on their Hackintosh may continue to do so, but I will no longer suggest or support TonyMacX content or material....
Good Bye Tony.... and thanks for Killing Freedom of choice, speech and education..
Welcome back to http://www.osx86project.org/ thanks for staying true to your believes..
Ive been warned in other forums too simply for admitting that i'd made my own Hackintosh, and that I didn't believe I had done anything illegal (I owned a copy of the OS). Its a subject that feels like walking on egg shells to talk about.
I can relate with getting punished from Insanelymac for asking what was a SL-C bios mod. They banned me for like a day.
I honestly did not know what that was and can understand how forums that live on the edge of legality have
to send out a message to their subscribers about what right and wrong behavior. I mean when your posting on someones
forum its like walking on their property and they have every right to protect themselves legally and keep order.
On the other hand I get how its all shades of gray. Technically running OSX on anything but Mac hardware is a
infringement on the software user purchase agreement. People fool themselves into thinking putting on a Mac
apple sticker on their PC makes it legal. Truth is once Apple is done with sueing all the big guys like Samsung
they will come after Tonymac and Insanelymac and shut them down. So information is power and I would save as
much instructions there is out there and hold on to it just in case..
FOCK them, if I break the rules, for not providing information asked I dont expect them to banned my for not answering them back. they just assumed that I obtain the OS illegally so without questioning they just wash they hands and banned me... forget all the support I provided not to mention publicity... Oh well... cant be bother with legalities... at the end of the day, just cause I say suggest something I shouldnt be banned....
:rolleyes: :shakes:
Mountain Lion has came out yesterday... been busy at work Ill try it out tonight on my macbook.. also a new version of Unibeast 1.5 has been released to support Lion and M.Lion will let ya know how it works...

sooo.. you can't plug in a discrete GPU? that's all? :confused: if that is all, meh, don't care!Quote:

wait.. so they aren't certified but does that rule out 100% function? :/
Ok just to clarify: Well the Non Certified Thunderbolts are the those used in many (Not All) Asus and Asrock as they use external ports for their discrete graphics .... = Not support, No Display... Why?:
The issue is that Asus' Thunderbolt card and ASRock's Thunderbolt motherboard uses an external cable to connect a discrete graphics cards DisplayPort connector via an input connector on either the card or the motherboard which connects the display signal from the graphics card to the Thunderbolt chip. This is not something Intel is at least currently allowing for and as such the two companies were turned down for certification.
For the Gigabyte Mobos using the Intel DSL3510L chip:
The thing so far. is that you can’t hot-swap Thunderbolt devices using the Gigabyte boards and this simply because they’re not detected as being a Thunderbolt device, but are instead seen by the OS as an internal PCI Express device. Since Thunderbolt is pretty much an external PCI Express interface, this makes sense. What this means is that you have to plug in your Thunderbolt devices at boot, which might not be ideal for everyone, but it’s something that we’re hoping to be able to solve given enough time. Note that things like hard drive docking solutions where you have a removable drive are still hot swappable on the drive end, as long as the dock itself supports hot swappable drives.
Further more am Not sure about, Asus, MSI or Intel motherboards with the single port DSL3310 Thunderbolt controller that have tried to attach a Thunderbolt device, as currently I don’t know if the DSL3310 Thunderbolt controller is compatible with OS X or not and it would be good to have some confirmations as to whether or not it works. So far we’ve only had a single report about the Apple Thunderbolt display in the forums, but it’s not conclusive, although a user going by the name of Einsteiniac claims to have gotten his display working, albeit not entirely flawlessly, as the display turns off before you reach the OS and as such he had to unplug the display and plug it back in to make it work.
Final Comment:
Intel is currently the sole manufacturer and certifier of Thunderbolt controllers and as such, if you don’t meet or exceed Intel’s specification, then you won’t get certified and in turn, your product can’t carry the Thunderbolt logo. In this case it appears to be more of a political issue than an actual concern about Asus and ASRock not meeting Intel’s standard, as Intel is clearly using Thunderbolt as a means of pushing its integrated graphics solution.
This is at least so far bad news for CustoMac users, as either solution would’ve made it much simpler to use a discrete graphics card with the Thunderbolt/mini DisplayPort connectors on the motherboards. It will be interesting to see if the two companies can make some kind of deal with Intel to allow this implementation in the future, or if they’ll simply ignore the certification process and still sell their products, although the latter option doesn’t seem all that likely.
So if you would like to use 2 Thunderbolt ports, for Display + Devices I suggest buying a Mobo with Intel chip DSL3510L, which is of course certified, and the best supported under Lion and Mountain Lion.
PS sorry for the Long Post.... LOL

Guys check out the Hackintosh Gallery is pretty good!! :D http://www.osx86.net/contest/21504-v...workplace.html
Any ideas how to get HDMI audio working? I just set up a system & everything works. I've looked into HDMI audio walkthroughs & let's just say I can find anything that does a decent job of holding my hand & the explanations are vague.
Here's my hardware:
ga-z77n-wifi (wifi doesn't work, using a USB dongle, I have to get usb 3.0 working)
i5 3570k @ 4ghz (pushing to 4.4 once everything is stable)
GTX 650 (works perfectly w/ the new cuda driver, but no audio, obviously).
I doubt any other info matters.
I'm on 10.8.3 (yep, everything works out of the box basically).
Ideas or can someone point me to a walkthrough for people like me not well versed in kexts & the like?
Edit: Found the only DSDT out there with HDMI audio working out of the game. Took me forever to get it working, but I have everything working & I'm in the process of dual booting w/ Win 7. If it wasn't for luck, I wouldn't have HDMI audio working.
Everything is working on 10.8.3. I believe I have to get USB 3.0 to work. I have a wifi dongle working. I need to test ethernet, but I know that will work. Everything else seems solid. :up:
Great Buddy! I was just about to mention that you could try the DSDT from tonymac site, but it looks like you already found it! :DQuote:

Are you well versed on how to actually enable HDMI audio? That's been my main issue. Tonymacx86 has a DSDT for the board I'm using (GA-Z77N-Wifi). Solid board, but it's the only one I can use for audio. I can't really get the walkthroughs to work.Quote:

OK, so I thought you had the audio working already with the DSDT, but if you want the sounds coming out of the Nvidia HDMI card then you will have to edit the DSDT with the Nvidia card to allow the sound to go through the HDMI port, I will look into it and try to help you out. However the USB3 should work out of the box... have you tried USB Bus FIX and USB legacy off with Champlist? Not sure about getting the Onboad wireless card working. There are a ton of mac compatible wireless card already, so I would suggest buying one for $5 and place it on the adapter on the mobo, that why it would work out of the box.
PS Check out the first page http://www.tonymacx86.com/golden-bui...6870-a-61.html
And this ---> http://www.tonymacx86.com/hdmi-audio...ward-dsdt.html
Thanks buddy.
I spent a while & had to reflash the bios. Not sure why, but the gigabyte bios on my board seems flaky. Then I couldn't get the board to see my video card. This build hates me lol.
Long story short, everything works. I'm going to test usb 3.0 & if it's not working, I'll just use multibeast to get the ports working. Shouldn't be an issue.
I'm also going to swap the intel wifi card for an atheros ar9280 half height mini-pcie card. Supposedly works out of the box. I have one on the way. Should make it a solid build.
Edit:
Not sure if you noticed this, but with update 10.8.3, I had to disable the onboard graphics to make my gtx 650 work.
Coolio, Atheros cards are very compatible... use this driver if you need it? http://www.osx86.net/downloads.php?d...id=2311&page=6 I haven't tried the latest update version.. but its weird that it would disable the Onboard GPU?? by the way what on board GPU you got? pretty sure most 600 Series Nvidia cards are supported natively so no need for GraphicsEnabler = Yes.
Howdy David
I'm hoping that you're going to be able to help me out. I just picked up a W370ET of my own and would love to set it up as yours is. Btw, I've seen you posts on other forms as well, did you ever get the sound issue fixed? Regardless, I'm comfortable with messing with really important files to tweak a system but have 0 experience on the level this seems it might take and I can't seem to find ANY other resources out there for this laptop - would you be willing to help me out, or at least point me in a direction? I very much appreciate it, kind sir, and would be more than happy to send you a nice thank you package over there in London or something for your time!
Jeff
Hi Jeff, before getting into this project I would point out what I have gotten to work on the W370ET:
CPU works bit is not identified correctly if using Ivy Bridge as there are not being used in MacBook Pro yet, however it doesnt not prevent you from working if using the correct Kext, GPU (forget the Nvidia card it will never work and will need to remove the kexts, using the HD4000, with EFI string and with Internal or HDMI output, non VGA output), USB 2.0, 3.0 (only USB 3 devices and non storage devices) Battery (ish... not very accurate), Webcam (Not the best), Trackpad (using Voodoo PS2 so like a mouse no scrolling or multi touch) Audio doesnt seem to work I have tried a lot of Voodoo sounds methods. Wifi works with a supported wireless card, SD reader doesnt work either. Ethernet works, Might need to edit the plist if you cant access the App Store or is not verified.
As you have probably seen on other post, specially TonyMac, I have to be careful about how I describe the way on how to install Mountain Lion, what kexts are used, using iAtkos and other tools. Unfortunately I haven't had much time, with Uni and work, to work out a way to get the sound problem. I do recommend updating the Bios of the Clevo w370et using a Bios Mod from here -----> http://biosmods.wordpress.com/w370et/ Prema is worked out a way of unlocking the Bios for multiple features... one of those Audio enable/disable, making easier to install MLion, and other things. So for starters I would download iAtkos ML2 from here http://iatkos.me/forum/viewtopic.php?f=77&t=23105 then we can work on how to use it, to install it, you will have to install certain Kexts and mods. Find me when you are ready to try it mate. But I do must say this isnt the best or easiest Hackintosh to get working. I recommend other easier and more compatible laptops.. Nevertheless if you are up to messing about count me in! Good luck!
hey ive heard you are very active in the hackintosh scene and wanted to know if you could help i have a old qx9650 lying around and want a decent board to use it with ;D what would you recommend?
I had my previous Q9650 CPU on my P5Q Deluxe, it a very solid, stable and compatible hackintosh, as well as an awesome overcloker, to be honest you can get any P45, X48 mobo asus, gigabyte and would be hackintoshable, best thing is to go to this site http://www.tonymacx86.com/11-dsdt-database.html and select the 775 socket and pick the mobo of your choice.. hopefully you can still find them, if they aren't all extinct by now lol :D
Just realized this is my mate Dave being a smart ass :D LOLQuote:

So anyone have any suggestions? I guess I could get a USB audio adapter.
Sorry for the super late reply, been through a lot lately... erm if you still cant get audio working I suggest getting a usb adapter from creative.. http://www.pclaunches.com/entry_imag...undblaster.jpg One of this cost me like $40 and is compatible..
