After overcoming several hurdles, I have installed Lion using Unibeast+10.7.3+Bridgehelper.
The installation was very easy, and I was surprised that it picked up my Ethernet/LAN during the install and allowed me to register with my Apple ID.
I then updated to 10.7.4 and used the latest Bridgehelper to update the kernel on my new installation.
I can now reboot using the Unibeast USB and choose my installation - in fact, I am using my Hackintosh right now.
This is actually my second installation as I tried to follow the installation instructions on "Lion Installation Guide for Ivy Bridge CPUs". After I ran MultiBeast and rebooted, everything started going wrong.
I immediately found that my Ethernet/LAN was lost.
I then found that, after a very short time (minutes), I had a message telling me I had to press the Power Off button to shut down the system - I could do nothing else as I had lost all control of the OS.
In the end, I just reinstalled from scratch to get back to where I am now.
Can someone tell me what I should do next?
Do I need to create a dsdt, do I have to learn about kexts?
Further info; my system seems to run well after booting from Unibeast but I have found I have no sound through my EVGA GT 520 HDMI connection.
I have also found that I cannot view YouTube video (after installing flash player). The video appears to hang after a few seconds, or I just get a spinning wheel in a black box.
It doesn't appear my USB 3 ports work either.
I suspect I have many more limitations, just haven't found them yet.
Oh, and my UK 'PC' keyboard keys are not mapped properly.
Regarding the Multibeast install, I'm afraid I did not understand the instruction.
I simply chose;
UserDST Install, 803KB - the instruction says "you can just run UserDSDT without a DSDT on the desktop" although I do not know if that is correct for my gA-Z68Ap-D3.
System Utilities, 0Kb
and, to be honest, I can't remember choosing Drivers and Bootloaders, 95.8MB - I assume I did as the system started with the Bootloader (Lion being the only option to boot).
I did not change any settings, I only chose the options above.
The result of this is describer above.
I would be very grateful if someone can point me in the right direction.
Many thanks
