[tutorial] install mac os x 10.7 lion on any pc [hackintosh]

can't afford a mac? no worries we will make a hackintosh

NOTE: THIS MIGHT BE A RISKY HACK AND NEED MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO DO IT. BUT IN THE END ITS JUST TRUE SATISFACTION.YOU HAVE TO FORMAT YOUR ENTIRE HARD DRIVE AS WE NEED TO MAKE NEW PARTITION SO BETTER GRAB A EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE AND TAKE BACKUP.

So lets start by downloading the required stuff

  • niresh mac os x lion (from kat.ph)
  • multibeast for lion (from tonymacx86.com)
  • audio and ethernet kext (search for it on google like this "motherboard mode audio and ethernet next and dsdt"}
  • kext utility (search in google)
  • mac os x lion combo update from apples website
so once downloaded transfer all files except the os x image file into a usb stick. make sure that you format the usb and keep the type as fat32 .

PRE INSTALLATION PROCESS

lets start by making the bootable dvd of mac os x

just right click on the image file and click open with > windows disk burner. now insert a blank dvd give it some time to read and once the light in the rom stops blinking click on the burn option in the window shown above. once done insert the dvd again and restart your computer and go into bios by hitting f12/delete or any other key depending on your motherboard. for gigabyte its delete key


it might be different for you depending on your motherboard. gigabyte users its might be similar. so once in bios u need to go to integrated peripharals and wherever you see ide press enter on it and select "ahcl". if you don't get that then don't worry even my motherboard don't have it. next thing make sure you enable usb mouse and keyboard


now change the boot order as cd rom 1st your hard drive as 2nd


Ok so once done that we are done with the pre installation process

INSTALLATION

so lets start the actual fun. now after saving the changes done in bios your pc must restart and will boot from your dvd rom. you will be presented by this

so now just hit enter and you will get the os x loading screen. if you get os x screen but you don't see a spinning wheel on bottom then go back restart your pc and at this screen type npci=0x2000.
once done that you must get this screen

at this stage it will take 7 to 10 minutes to proceed. just make sure you move the mouse after a minute or so to avoid freezing of  installation . so once don't you will get this


okey so not select your language and hit on arrow. again it will take lil time to go to next screen

once you choose the number of partitions cloick on the first one and name it and below there is option called format click on it and change to mac os x journaled for mac. if you are making another drive food windows then click on it and change format to fat32.

at this stage don't go anywhere just keep moving mouse after 1 or 3 minutes. you might feel it freeze as the status bar doesn't show any progress but don't worry it will. it takes about 25 to 30 minutes for installation and once done you will get this screen


now click on the restart button and make sure that you have your dvd still inside the rom. once restarting you will get this screen
