The title pretty much says it all. I have the infamous lifehacker hackintosh, which has served me well. However finding the dsdt for it has been impossible. Does anyone know of a tutorial on how to go about installing Lion and making it fully functional?

Any help would be appreciated. I know I am not the only one in this situation, however it seems I cannot seem to find a clear explanation of the process.

Cheers

Extract dsdt with ubuntu, edit it, install lion with unibeast + multibeast. profit!
 
You can find the DSDT file by searching Google for "EP45-UD3P DSDT".

The steps are the following:

1) Place the DSDT.aml file on your desktop
2) Use the Unibeast method
3) Run Multibeast with user DSDT and Realtek network driver

There are some "gotchas" with the install:

1) Be sure that your OS X boot hard drive is attached to a PURPLE SATA connector
- This is powered by the JMicron SATA chip
- ONLY these two purple connectors are found by the installer after boot
2) Uplug ALL other hard drives so the boot drive is disk0
3) If you get an error that Lion can't be installed on the boot drive then go into Disk Utility and slightly resize the boot partition.
