Hi,

 

that is what I am doing. But I am stuck at the point where it shows "PCI configuration begin"

Its 10.7.2 from the retail USB stick that I use with xfail with the m4300 lion boot pack, but it does not get further than this.

 

please help.

Dear Madmax,

 

Unfortunately it seems myHack still does not support installation media from retail USB yet. You will need to use xfail to transfer the installation files to a usb installer. Just make sure you remove problematic kext, install Extra bootpack from your machine and run myfix full mode using myhack utilities.

 

Cheers!

hi

I tried to locate the shared support folder but it is hidden, I guess. How do I make this folder visible?

Hi,

Hi,

 

I plan to swap the 3G card and the airport card over from my D620.

I hope the formfactor is the same.

 

I just bought the M4300 off ebay today.

 

So there will be some fun ahead.

Hi,

 

Thanks to this side I managed to install Lion 10.7.2 and all works fine.

Now I ve got a new HDD 750 GB WD Scorpio Black.

 

I can install Lion, but when I use lizard to install Cha,eleon off the EDP 2.2 then it installes fine but still can not boot.

 

Only via USB Stick works fine.

 

 

 

On my old HDD Lizard installes the bootloader just fine.

 

Please refer to the screenshot..

 

What goes wrong here?

 

Please help.

 

Madmax

Why not do it the old school way and order the USB stick?

Does Lion even come on a DVD?

 

 

Hi Thanks for the answers.

 

I have now installed Lion, but am still fighting with wifi.

I have 1 and ended up replacing it with a broad com one...

 

Hi,

madmax

Hi,

 

I have used Dell DW 1395 which is Broadcom 4312 sofar without issues.

In Lion I can not get this card to work. I tried to rebrand the card to airport, but the line to insert the new vendor and product IDs returns the rawset value parsing error.

My card is in the list but I have revision 00 and the guide is rev 01. can that be the issue?

 

Subsystem vendor ID is 0x1028

subsystem product ID is 0x000B

 

Please help

Hi,

 

I have managed to install Lion 10.7.2 and got all working so far, exept wifi.

 

I use in SL Dell True Mobile 1395 WLAN Mini card.

 

That works great on SL but not in Lion.

 

 

Can someone point me to a solution?

 

 

thx

 

Madmax

Hi,

 

Thanks Leon.

 

That would be an option.

 

Fortunately I have managed to change the SM bios. Now I purchased Lion.

 

I finally updated SL to 10.6.8. Which works now as well. The custom BIOS from this page worked very well. Thanks to the guys that did all the work for that as well as the EDP which makes things so much easier, especially for a guy like me who doen not really know what I am doing.

Hi,

 

I have changes the smbios a few times. Even with I use the config for Mac Book Pro 8.3 (pre config), it does not work.

 

What do I need to change it to get Lion intslled?

 

Please help.

Madmax

Hi again,

 

just out of curiosity, did someone install Lion on the same D620nv config that I have?

 

regards

 

Madmax

Hi There,

 

I have used edp 191 but it still does not allow me to download Lion from the appstore.

 

I have purchased Lion on the USB Stick and tried that as well, but I receive a message that Lion can not be installed on my D620 nv.

 

Would it be helpful when I would install the custom BIOS from OSXL here?

 

Also I seem to have a rare modell of the D620 NV with the T7200 2.0 GHz Prosessor. Can that be the reason?

 

Dell D620

CPU: T7200, 2.0 GHz

4 GB RAM

Dell Wireless 350 Bluetooth Module

Dell True Mobile 1395 WLAN Mini card

Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit controller

NVidia Quadro NVS 110M

 

Please help.

Hi,

 

i thought i can first download it.

 

right now I can not even get it from the app store.

 

Thats the first step.

 

Madmax

wait are you trying to upgrade it directly without modifying the lion.app? i don't think you can.

 

Hi,

Madmax

you probably need a better smbios file to allow purchase, try the one for your model in edp1.9. as for networking, use the kexts that worked for you previously 1n 10.6.7 - 10.6.0. usually its io80xx something family kext, ionetworkingfamily kext and iopcifamily kext all or some. depends

 

Thanks Bronxteck,

 

I have chosen the right model (5) in the EDP 1.9. but it still doesn't work.

 

How do I modefy the smbios file to match the exact model?

 

Please advise.

Hello there.

"Diese Version von Mac OS X 10.7 kann auf diesem Computer nicht installiert werden."

 

I currently running 10.6.7. (having wifi trouble with 10.6.8.)

 

Any suggestions?
