Possible to upgrade D430 to Lion?

I have a working SL 10.6.8 on my D430. Upgraded to edp 1.9.2 and all is still well. Can I upgrade this straight to Lion or do I have to go through the routine with myhack and start fresh? I have a Lion USBinstaller (unmodified) from AppStore that I can use.

 

If I can just upgrade, do I install edp 2.2 before or after Lion is installed?

 

As far as I can tell the D430 is capable of running Lion.

Hi..

 

If your D430 has a core 2 duo processor it should be able to run os x lion. I'm not sure if you can just upgrade (haven't really bump into someone or article on upgrading) but for me i prefer a fresh install. You'll need to transfer the Lion USB Installer to another usb (e.g. using latest xfail), install bootpack and chameleon and run the installer. After lion is installed, you'll need to install EDP, rebuild you mkext and with good luck boot into an all new OS X lion. Well, that's how to do it in general. Check out the wiki for details.

 

Cheers!
