I just went to Software Update and it did the rest, it a while tho

 

I also had EDP 2.2 installed already

yup, I just did! Dell D620 Intel Graphics

 

Use EDP 2.2

I updated my Dell Latitude D620 w/GMA950 graphics to 10.7.3 without a hitch

sleep works, safari works, let's see what else, everything else so far.

 

using EDP 2.2 still. . .

 

feel free to post your results!

All done on a Pentium 4 hackintosh running Tiger 10.4.11

yes, I'm playing everything

 

Enjoy!

 

I recently acquired an old Pentium 4 Dual Core gateway desktop with a gig of ram and an Intel chipset, I put XP on it so I could use my old legit 7.3 version of Pro Tools on it.

 

So for grins I thought I'd also put OS X Tiger x86 on it, so I ended up upgrading to the full 10.4.11 and putting in a brand new ATI 9550xl AGP x8 Radeon with 256mb ram - the only thing that don't work is dual displays and USB storage devices. . .

 

funny thing is it runs way faster than my old single core AMD Sempron (my 1st hackintosh)

I don't know if its cos it's Dual core VS Single Core, but the old Pentium 4 w/SSE2 emulation kicks butt! My old Pro Tools works great, I'm using an old version of iLife taken straight from an original 2006 MacPro.

 

TO get the video to work right I had to put my dev and ven ID into the correct kext (namely the Radeon9700.kext) and add a couple of Castillo kexts and I got my video acceleration straight away. . .

Merry Christmas to all!

Me & the misses got the last two black iPhones at our local sprint store this weekend.

 

It's quite an upgrade from my Samsung intercept which I had for almost 2 years.

 

You can use Siri for anything that requires typing, like this post for instance.

 

assuming your the admin of your computer, type the following in a terminal - replacing username with your user name:

 

sudo chown -R username:admin /Users/username

How to get your VGA display to work:

1. When you're booted up, goto System Preferences -> Displays

2. Make sure TV is on and plug in VGA cable and wait for laptop screen to refresh

3. Hit the Detect Displays button and wait a few seconds

4. if nothing happens the 1st time, unplug cable, wait for refresh and try a 2nd time hitting the Detect button again

5. it should get it the 2nd time!

 

NOTE:

after the TV display comes on you can then goto the arrangement tab and move the top bar over to the TV Display screen and do full screen apps (Lion) from there. . .

Updated: System now is unstable under EDP 2.1

Where is the EDP 2.2?

 

There's a link for it on the 1st page of this post - #15

Hi guys,

 

I am trying to get my d620 to run Lion. So far I've succesfully created a USB drive for bootinh & installing with EDP2.1 and Lion 10.7.2 (bought from Apple store). However I hae some issues:

- when I install edp 2.1 the PC won't boot, hangs on waiting for root device.

- mouse scroll wheel reversed (!?)

 

Any advise?

 

Don't update to 10.7.2 until EDP 2.2 comes out, I don't know how well 2.1 will work with that current update.

In Lion, the mouse/trackpad is reversed for scrolling but you can change that in trackpad settings

What about my thread, where I keep getting the KP right after boot, when booting off the SL install stick?

 

Can you provide a screenshot of the KP?

It's hard to sat what it might be.

Also, if you have sleepenabler.kext in the Extra/Extensions folder that could be doing it.

I'm running SL on a D620/GMA950. It definitely has a core 2 duo, but the Lion install application (step 1) says I don't. About this Mac confirms that its a core 2 duo. I am running SL in 32 bit mode

 

 

admins-Mac-Pro$ uname -a

Darwin admins-Mac-Pro.local 10.7.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.7.0: Sat Jan 29 15:17:16 PST 2011; root:xnu-1504.9.37~1/RELEASE_I386 i386

 

so I guess this is the issue. Do I need to get SL running in 64 bit mode, before I can upgrade to Lion? How would I do that?

 

you cannot upgrade a hackintosh to Lion that way, you need to do a few more things like make a bootable USB stick, use xfail to copy your Lion to it, etc. . .

 

and how to make the Lion USB stick:

I'm running Lion 10.7.2 with EDP 2.2 with no problems on my D620 w/Intel Graphics

Hi. I was wondering how functional is the 64-bit version of Lion on a Dell D620 with Intel Graphics? What works and doesn't work? Is it worth the upgrade from SL? So far, I've only seen installation tutorials for the 32-bit version, so I'm assuming it's not 100% yet.

if you wanna try 64 bit!

I've went back to Lion, I do not wish to impede progress

Thanx Klex, thanx for sharing your Lion experience. I've been thinking about getting a magic trackpad for my imac, my wife has an ipad 2 so I kinda know some of the gestures.

Now, I just need to get an extra $70 rounded up here. . .

Any news or updates for this for Lion???

Patched Voodoohda with cracking/Mic fix

 

To test with Skype call

echo123 your recorded voice should play back

 

is this included in the latest Lion EDP's? namely 1.9 & 1.9.1

 

just curious thanx!

that will be great.

 

How to Install Lion - I went here

 

ok, I remember now! it's been a few weeks so bear with me here.

 

1.) You have to right click (or ctrl click) on the Install Mac OS X Lion.app and goto Show Pack Contents -> Contents -> SharedSupport

2.) Mount InstallESD.dmg image and install xfail to your USB stick (after you had formatted it GUID at 1st of course)

3. xfail will then automagically mount Mac OS X Base System and start copying the Lion setup files to your USB stick (it will take quite a while so make some coffee or something)

4.) download Champlist to install latest Chameleon and install it to USB stick

5. copy your Extra folder to USB stick reboot and install - either fresh or over the top of Snow Leopard

Hey guys just wondering how to you do a clean install of lion on a clean hard drive , how would i create a bootable usb, I'm trying to find a better way to reinstall lion without installing 10.6.8 first.Can someone tell me what i'm missing.

 

I made a bootable Lion USB stick that will install Lion without upgrading, but I can't remember where! I will try to remember and post!

Why Ty Mr. Bronx

Can i install lion on d620 core duo ?

 

Thanks

 

No sorry, you can't. But you can upgrade your CPU to a Core 2 Duo for fairly cheap. (core duo = 32 bit, core 2 duo = 64 bit, Lion = 64 bit)
