When the UniBeast installation is complete, you can use this USB thumb drive to install Lion on a Hackintosh, for a fresh install, or as an upgrade to existing Snow Leopard. This will take a while (anywhere from 15 to 20 minutes). Once done, click Next, enter your password, and have a cup of coffee. If youвЂ™re going to install Lion (using this USB thumb drive being prepared) on a laptop, select the вЂњLaptop SupportвЂќ option as well. But remember, you have to select only one option. If youвЂ™re using the Lion USB thumb drive, select the вЂњApple StoreвЂќ option. Now if youвЂ™re using the Mac App Store version of OS X Lion, select the вЂњMac App StoreвЂќ option. Upon clicking Next, youвЂ™ll see some options. Accept any license agreements, and select your USB thumb drive when you arrive at the Destination Select screen.
