Awesome ! how is Yos working so far? and can you mention the method for installation or a full instructions now?

Hi oldfux Thank you for your time and effort. The method you mentioned may have worked for some people but not in my case. I obtained a copy of the MD and installed on a flash disk. Booted with that , re-wrote, erased serial no etc.. And tried to re-assign UUID , but non worked. I'm not sure but maybe I'm still doing something wrong. I got the latest Maintenance disket and managed to make a bootable usb and run the program but when I command assign UUID I get error :UUID already assigned. I dont have the instalation exe file any more but still have the USB pendrive and it's still working. If you like I can send it to you to try on your system, perhaps you could find a way.

Has anyone tried snow on Lenovo x201 , What kexts should be patched replaced with the original ones when you want to install a hackintosh? I installed this one using 10.7 bootpack. But tha trackpad is not working as you see in the pic. Any suggestion Thanks for your help.

so I tried again, with ubuntu 10 , after the first command: sudo apt-get update , this is what I got: some index files failed to download. Then I just opened the highlighted line in browser, to see what's there. Maybe this screen could help track the problem Any advice is highly appreciated

I get error after typing the very first command. And the same error shows up, as I enter the next commands. At some points it shows like downloading some files then stop with message ip not found and so on. Maybe it's an issue with the Ubuntu version? I used Ubuntu 10.10 i386.iso installed in USB. Can you point me to the exact version of Ubuntu you used? (Internet connection seems ok, as I can surf the web swiftly)

This is the same page, I mentioned above. I get error, complaining can not find the files
