Of course, but first you must create an installer USB and boot to the OS X installer.
 
So, if I understood correctly. I have re-install OS completely using chameleon boot loader. I can't use the existing working OS to just re-install just the boot loader ? Thanks

What OS X version are you running now? You're posting in the Yosemite forum.

Post #1 implies you're attempting to install Yosemite and are unable to reach the installer.

If you've already installed, of course you can simply install the bootloader (Chameleon) and configure it correctly.
 
I am running Yosemite but display is only showing 3M VRAM that means graphics driver not loaded and I can't do any video or run Unity3D. It is very slow and sluggish. I may be confusing you. I though changing the boot loader on the existing Yosemite from Chimera to Chameleon will load the graphic driver which will enable the hardware acceleration. Am I wrong ? I could be since I just getting into Hackintosh.

Thanks

If you install Chameleon and use the flags I specified earlier... yes.
 
I installed the latest Chameleon and now its restarting my computer. Any clue ?

I have been trying to install Mavericks and now Yosemite and was not able to make it work (Hardware acceleration) I am really tired.
 
Basically to clarify after loading the HFS+ files, it just reboots. Any pointers on this ?

When does the restart happen? What bootflags are you using?

Some Lenovos suffer from lapic panic. Use cpus=1 as a workaround until you can install the KernelPatcher module from Chameleon Wizard.

If you're tired, get some sleep.
