For so long I've been away, not updating and everything...
It's simply because I've not been having any issues on my Hackintosh, Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I'm afraid of updating to Lion.
Finally, just today, I pulled out the mouse in my chest and raised all my balls.
It's because I need to do this and I want to upgraded my GPU...
So, i tested upgrading to Lion 10.7.2 using a Test Drive, where-in I use Carbon Copy Cloner.
Cloned my Snow Leopard 10.6.8 (MainDrive) then upgraded my TestDrive to Lion 10.7.2
Used this process in upgrading, xMove style:

So happy, that it all went well...
Now, here's a simple question.
Since my TestDrive is working all perfectly, can I simply used Carbon Copy Cloner to just Clone TestDrive to MainDrive? Or do I need to redo all the process on my MainDrive?
Update (4/13/12): Answer is YES! No need to redo the process in MainDrive
1. Boot "TestDrive"
2. Format MainDrive using Disk Utility.
3. Run Carbon Copy Cloner
4. Settings: Source = Test Drive | Destination = MainDrive
5. Run Multibeast and install Chimera Bootloader on MainDrive
NOTE: This must be done only if your already confident that your TesDrive is PERFECTLY working...
