Os X Base System.dmg
Yay, finally a gold master release has been established. Now to get our hands dirty on the newest OS from Apple. I could have attempted to write up a tutorial on how to install Lion on your hackintosh with the beta release, but if you recollect my previous post about Lion, you’ll remember I was testing the beta version out on my macbook pro. Though I was very pleased with the operating system and for a beta release it was very stable, it still had minor annoying glitches and some software conflicts. Considering I use my hackintosh for college, I can’t really afford a half-ass OS on my main machine that wouldn’t work with my chemistry software. Now all that has changed (hopefully). I just got a hand of the Gold Master Build and I am making preperations to my harddrive and machine to have a fresh install of OSX Lion 10.7.
Things to Note about the Gold master and 10.6.8 release:
- “Golden Master” refers to the final release version. 11A511 is listed as GM. You will be able to update as Apple releases 10.7.x maintenance builds.
- There have been speculations about Lion only being installed through an update from Snow leopard 10.6.8. This I will verify in the upcoming posts soon. Just after this hell week subsides in course work.
- 10.8.0 Darwin kernel with native Sandy Bridge support. This means that going forward, all Sandy Bridge systems can use default iBoot + MultiBeast method. (tonymac’s site)
- SATA3 6gbps now recognized and functional on Sandy Bridge. (tonymac’s site)
- Includes drivers for Sandy Bridge Intel HD 2000/3000 Integrated Graphics (No Injector Yet) (tonymac’s site)
- Includes drivers for AMD 6xxx Graphics cards (tonymac’s site)
- App Store Update to “Get Ready for Lion” (tonymac’s site 10.6.8)

Installing OS X from a DMG file can be difficult. With leopard testing and development, many people are having troubles installing from the supplied binary. Here is how it can be accomplished.
Installing OS X from a dmg file format instead of a DVD/CD format seems challenging. Here is how it can be accomplished.
1. Burn it to Dual Layer DVD
OS X is too large to fit on a single layer DVD; however, many macbooks support burning dual layer DVDs. The media is expensive, but for many people this is the easiest option.
Burn it and reboot to it. The OS X will install.
2. Restore the dmg file to an external device
An external hard drive or an iPod in hard disk mode will serve as an excellent booting device as well.
– Copy your dmg file to your current apple desktop.
– In the Utilities Folder in your Applications Folder select Disk Utility
– Select your external device in the left column of the utility
– Click the Restore button
– Drag your dmg to your Source textbox
– Drag your device from the left column to the Destination textbox
– Click the Restore
You will lose any information you have in your external device in this process. After the dmg is restored to the external device, change your boot disk to this device and reboot.
Dragging the source and destination files can be a little confusing. Click the picture below for a larger version.
