Guide for Installing Lion on the 4530s Version 3

[Dewitts]

sounds like it's trying find the boot file in the wrong partition, I had that once, I'll go find the how to and edit this post in a few minutes

EDIT: Try this was written for snow leopard but should work for lion
Open Applications/Utilities/Terminal.
Type diskutil list
Write down the IDENTIFIER of your Apple_HFS Snow Leopard drive. For this example: disk0s2.
Type sudo -s
Enter your password.
Type fdisk -u /dev/rdisk0
Type y
Type fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0
Type p
Type f 2
Type w
Type y
Close Terminal and reboot.

Note f 2 is telling it to boot from partition 2 as partition 1 is efi, you can change this to suit your install.

I don't know what is causing the bluetooth. I have an idea for the installer that could potentially help, we'll see.

Am I the only who has the problem with VGA output?
I've just recently bought 4330s with i3 HD3000, installed a clear Lion, then the stuff from the ProBook installer.
Actually I can get the picture on my external monitor but just before the next boot. System says that monitor is connected but no picture, reconnecting the cable (with new "Monitor Search") helps.

Is there any fix? Thanks
10.7.3

Try connecting, sleeping and then waking back up. The VGA isn't perfect.-

There's a heck-of-a-lot LESS graphic glitches in 10.7.3 than in previous versions of Lion - even with 8GB of RAM. Nice work blueking!

I don't use Bluetooth, so can't comment.

Glad it seems better even if not perfect!

But it was apple not me

if we could only figure out this bluetooth issue
and the "fewer" graphics issues, we are GOOD

Hey, ive got random freezes sometimes 2-3 times in an hour.

Someone has fix for that? Im using 10.7.3 .

 

[blueking]

People are testing various graphic fixes, so hopefully we will!

We'll of course post as soon as we find anything.
