I used this: thepiratebay.se/torrent/7156043/Mac_OS_X_Lion_For_All_Computers_Including_AMD_10.7 .3_V2_-_Niresh

Why I need to install snow leopard>?

Okay
You didn't install Snow leopard
and that is NOT GOOD
you need to install first Snow leopard (above the 10.6.3)
If you have an torrent or an legal disk of snow leopard then you need to do that first
Follow the guide of tomx86 or something
then you NEED to update to 10.6.6 or to 10.6.8
Then you can upgrade to 10.7
But i recommend to NOT work with torrents
try it with the legal way first
if it is not possible then use the torrents

I don't need any snow leopard. I solved my problem: my motherboard has intel HD integrated graphics, so intel hd graphics kernel is not working, so I disabled all video kernels. I ruined Lion successfully, but now problem is that I need good intel hd graphics kext.

you should have described your hardware first. In fact U should know all of your hardware before trying to install osx. Now please tell us what is your hardware, then people on this forum will be able to help u properly.

I installed iatkos l2, start over with that. already has boot loader, no need to get iboot or empireefi to start load, get that burn with transmac. load with that start fresh though with partitioned hdd. then update from apple once lion is up and running to 10.7.3
