How to install Lion GM on HP pavilion dv7 4269wm

[anerik70]

I haven't found kexts for either wifi or graphics! Is it hard to make your own kexts?

By the way, sometimes I run into an avoid error.and can't boot. Any solution?

Also, once I have lion working, do I have to delete any kexts from s/l/e?

remove hpet.kext

Now i'm getting some error about ACPI? It has a bunch of text with AHCI and kernel panic etc. It also says Press power to restart (message from Mac OS X itself).

Solutions?

Anyways, I haven't found any working broadcom 4313 kexts or ATI 6370m drivers. Have you?

Also, chameleon doesn't boot the laptop without the USB. It keeps giving me a boot0 error.

Okay i'll try to explain in my bad english (I'm from Colombia)

To do on a functional os x system

1. Download this dmg for booting: http://www.mediafire.com/?kjnvuc0l0ew5cm2

2. Get Lion GM dmg

3. Prepare an 8GB usb with two partitions 500MB for the boot and the rest for lion

4. Mount the MIID_DVx_i5i3 downloaded in step 1 and restore MIID to 500MB partition

5. Mount Lion GM dmg and restore to the other partition by Mald0n method

6. Install latest chameleon to MIID partition

7. Download: http://www.kexts.com/view/1730-os_x_lion_kernel_lapic.html

8. Copy this kernel to MIID and to Mac os x base system partitions (replace if neccesary)

9. In MIID partition (Extra folder)configure your com.apple.Boot.plist to load mach_kernel

10. Copy fakesmc.kext and nullcpupowermanagement.kext to system/library/extensions (in Mac os x base system partition)

11. Remove all ATI and IntelHD kexts from system/library/extensions (in Mac os x base system partition)

12. Copy my DSDT http://Olarila.com/forum/download/file.php?id=425 to extra folder in MIID partition

13. Reboot and boot from usb, then select mac os x base system

You have to get an usb keyboard to complete the install

 

Hi, after trying 150 times many different methods i have managed to install lion on my pc following your method. thank you sooooo much

but stil got stuck at the first boot after installation. tried many different boot flag (-v -x arch=i386 maxmem=4096 and combination), changed the HP lapic kernel to Taptuns kernel. but no hope

Another problem is I am not able to access this partition from windows 7 via macdrive.

If anyone can help me I will remain Indebted.

By the way I have DV6, is it not a problem if I use your dsdt ? Thanks in advance.

Can you guys stop leeching off my thread and maybe start your own? Your laptop models are different and might work but still the focus here is the HP DV7 4269WM and not your models.
