Hello, Is there anyway that I might be able to mail you a clean blank harddrive and you install it on your E6420 and mail it back to me? I have been trying to get this installed for the past 3 months I want to dual boot with Windows 7. Please send me a private message if we can work something out. I can offer payment as well, just not too much unfortunately.

Thank you, please keep me posted, also, can you please provide a link to lifehacker article.

anyone?

I have gotten Snow Leopard installed but looks like when it turns on, i get a white screen with nanoseconds error on it. I used the MY86OSX boot loader and Snow Leopard DVD, went through installation fine, but then once it restarts after completion, i get the screen.

Hey guys, I am completely new to OSX on PC's, so please bear with me. I have a Dell Latitude E6420 which I recently got from my company, obviously its a company computer so I swapped out for a new hard drive in order to set it up how I want during home hours and when at work, just pop the other hard drive in. I would like to set up a Dual Boot with Windows 7 and Lion X 10.7.2 but I have no idea at all where to begin. I have tried 2 times already with a disc that a buddy downloaded and burned for me of some version that is meant for Intel processors, but that did not work. I did set SATA to AHCI but it still did not work. Once CD is in, it goes through the black screen, then it goes to the whitish/grayish screen with the Apple logo and the little spinner on the bottom, it does the spinning for about 15 minutes, and then the spinner freezes and 5 mins after the CD stops spinning as well, I figured I'd let it sit there for a while but 10 minutes after the CD stopped spinning, I got a message on the screen saying I have to restart the computer and to press the power button, so it obviously did not work. I have been looking for the past 2 days already, I really would like to get Lion on this machine. I already have Windows 7 installed. The HDD is 300GB, I have split the HDD into two partitions, One is a 150GB Unformatted Primary partition, and the other is a 150GB NTFS Secondary partition which has Windows 7 on it installed. Can someone please help me install Lion on this machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

Thanks for the insight, Yes I have looked into it and according to http://www.osxlatitude.com/supported-models/ the e6220 is supported, but I have a similar machine just a bigger version so I think it should work, but I have not really found instructions for how to install it
