Also this doesn't seem to fix the black screen issue: If I left the laptop inactive for a while, the screen will turn off, and when I turn it back on it will become black screen. Then if I close the lid and reopen it, it will panic and ask me to turn off the computer.

Actually I recommend changing a few things on the top thread. From a first time installer's perspective, I can say it was actually very confusing, but once I got everything to work it seems like I understood why it was written that way. If you are interested I can rewrite the guide.

Wow didn't realized most apps don't even run on 10.7.5 today. This is including Chrome.

Internal wifi doesn't work. Intel 3945ABG/4965AGN. I got the USB wifi adapter to work after downloading Ralink's driver.

This is what I used instead: Not sure if it works. Rebooting now.

Also when I tried to run the following commands I noticed a few problems: First is that, shouldn't it be /System/Library/Extensions instead of /Library/Extensions? Second, my Lion's kextcache doesn't have -Boot flag.

Oh I got it to work by just moving my mouse occasionally. But I am curious. How do I add these flags when booting? It just boot directly into the installation GUI.

Okay it looks like everything works now except for the wifi. I tried using an USB wifi adapter but there is no wifi connection available in the system panel. What should I do now?

Weird, now it just went into black screen. Is this normal?

Yes, got that now. I guess the home page guide needs to be updated. I just disabled wifi (Intel) and now in the installation process. P.S. I am not really into upgrading to El Capitan or new models anyways. I just want to have fun putting OSX into this laptop. Maybe I can use it as a TV box or something later.

Hi, I just got an old Dell D620 and want to install OSX on it. I decided it would be wise to install Lion 10.7.5 on it and upgrade to El Capitan later if the system does run okay on it. I do have some confusion since it doesn't seem to be documented on the website. I realized I best not use EDP after reading some threads in D6XX, but I am confused about Fullpack vs EDP. My understanding is that, for D620 it is best to use the fullpack "D620_NV110m_10.7.5_Pack.zip," but how should I install it after the installation process? Do I simply unzip the file and use it as the bootpack when MyHack asked for it? I follow this guide from the home page: http://www.osxlatitude.com/edp/documentation/pre-installation/ However I was not prompted about Extra folder in MyHack...(I chosed to use GUID, no MBR patch). Also about "Chameleon-2.3svn-r2468.pkg.zip," when and where do I use this file? Nothing is mentioned in the guide. Anyways, thanks!
