Update OSX 10.7.5 to Maverick

[sandrino]

Hi, I have an Hackintosh based on:
3,39 Ghz Intel Core i5
GigaGyte Z68 Xp-UD3
16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
GeForce GT 430 1024 MB
OS X 10.7.5
The system are working perfectly, but I would like to upgrade to Maverick, I tried to install it directly from the Apple Store, Just to make a test, as if it were an original machine!
but after rebooting, nothing has changed!
OS X has remained the same and is not installed anything!
Can anyone give me some directions?
is my first time in this forum!
Best Regard Sandrino

Welcome Sandrino,

You need to create an UniBeast flash drive and install that way. Its the only way the installation will succeed.

Thank you very much, the only question I have is:
If I follow the installation it tells me the page that you have shown me,
I lose the installations of the pre-installed software!?

You can actually install over the top of your existing installation. To be honest - if possible I would try it on a spare HDD first, just in case something went bad on the install. I like to use a cloned drive as a first run - lets me check everything is OK. Wouldn't like to have problems and not have access to my working install.

You might find the following handy for Mavericks:
