Hey guys

I have an HP Notebook, and i want know if i can install the OS X Lion. Here is my hardware:

CPU: Core2Duo 2.0 Ghz
GPU: Intel 4500mhd ( Bult in )
Memory: 2x 2GB ( 4GB ) DDR2 800 Mhz
MotherBoard: HP ( i do not know more informations about it )
Network: Broadcom wireless card and Realtek ( Ethernet )

This is the basic information about my hardware. I install SL using a retail disk and Chameleon

Now, i have SL 10.6.8, working well, but i want do the update.

Well, i dont care about if the graphics are working ( resources ), if the video works, everthing is fine

Okay get an external USB drive, clone your 10.6.8 to the external, use Mulitbeast to install the bootloader (to the external). Reboot to the external to confirm that it is good.

Then go onto app store and purchase Lion and follow Tony's instructions to install to the External drive.

When you are happy with Lion on the external, you can clone it to your internal drive or do another fresh install.

BUT... always leave your self with a recovery path.... always have a bootable clone of a working installation (and/or a Time Machine backup that you trust).
