Yes using a virtual machine of Lion or SL or even ML you can make a bootable Mac distro. Which distro are you thinking of making and do you already have the distro downloaded.

Hey finally!!!
Well i have a VM running on Lion but i have the DMG's of mountain leopard, Lion, Iatkos L1 and more than I don't remenber... make them bootable via VM but not workin. I did burn Dvds but not working too.. Always the same result... Nvidia Paching rom failed... they apple logo comes front but stops or freezes with the msg of the nvidia thing...

Since you have the .DMG files of both Mountain Lion and Lion you can use myHack to create a bootable USB drive installer from either one of them. Myhack is a fantastic tool that I have used about a dozen times with Lion and ML. There is a tutorial on how to use it on its site.

The error message you get...are you typing -v at the beginning of your attempted install. Here is a site with a list of boot flags and explanations as to what each one means.

Also since you have both Intel and Nvidia graphics on your system you probably can turn off the Nvidia card in your bios.

Thanks a lot!!! I'll try and comment later...

I did myhack's way w/same results... Used the -v and graphicsenabler=no/yes flags = SAME RESULST

If Anyone can help or give ideas... Thanked.

Before you install the OS are you going into disk utility and formatting the HDD Mac OS X Journalled?? One of the lines of the pic shows that it is trying to run on an NTFS partition. OS X will not run on an NTFS partition. The pic shows a Windows partition on it already.

Hi again...after a lot of work a get my pc to work through niresh instal dvd v2... but there's things that need to be fixed as the wifi, and the sound. There's a blinking horizontal line when moving a web up and down in safari.
Im trying to get newer kext or something to get it work 'like a shine' lol.
If you can help ... always welcome

On the AMD system that I have Niresh installed onto I don't even use Safari. It will not install flash player onto it. I use Firefox or Chrome for Mac instead.

I never tried sound.. I installed a Soundblaster Audigy card that works great with the kXAudioDriver-1.11b0 audio driver. Wifi is a challenge on any Hackintosh...either desktop or Laptop. Take a look around this site...it has lots of info that will help.
