sounds like you are booting onto the hard drive and not the USB first. select the boot device options at the bios screen (mine is F12 or something) and select USB HDD or some sort and try to boot the USB.

i have yet to run into an issue with safari. i still prefer it over most browsers.

updated with software update. all is good, just had to reinstall kexts for audio.

i absolutely LOVE the magic trackpad... it's worth all the $$$ i paid for it! :)

are you talking about hibernation or sleep?? i think the biggest confusion on these mac builds is when you "manually" sleep it is actually hibernating, where sleep just turns the monitor off.

you have to be a little more specific of your processor and motherboard.. it's a bit of a shot in the dark without that information.

i had to grab the two kexts ACPI and IO from my Lion install app to confirm the DSDT fix, and yes, it worked for me too! :)

i only got kernel panics during the installation process... but that is when i'm under my UserDSDT system... an EasyBeast system, though has not as much functionality, enables me to proceed through the installation. i just convert to a userdsdt system by deleting all those previously added extra...

finally got mine to go through... i KEPT getting a kernel panic through the software update and through the combo update (about 3-4 minutes in). finally, i reinstalled lion with only the newest EasyBeast, nothing else, and updated to 10.7.2 combo (which worked fine). I also re-ran EasyBeast...

Same problem here

As an update, I did the applertc kext back when I didn't have a custom dsdt. That add on makes no difference if I add it or not for 10.7.2 (it still kernel panics). If I don't add it I can't install 10.7.1 lol I don't need it unless I upgrade to 10.7.1 but I'm still stuck with my custom OR...

I keep kernel panicking during the update, both combo and through the software updater. I'm not using voodoo hda and everything is user dsdt

So I've tried about 3 times to run the update, both the combo and the update from the software updater. Each time I get the gray untitled screen or a kernel panic. I'm running a custom dsdt, no voodoo hda installed. Not sure what to do?

Actually yes. I have that same board and the MSI version of that 8400 GS. Multibeast 3.8 definitely causes that error. Update to 10.6.8, install multibeast 3.8 with user dsdt and then replace those acpi and iopci Kexts from 10.6.7 and you'll be golden

post what you find in verbose mode when you boot. :)
