As far as I know, the only way to properly create a bootable Lion disc/disk is to use Disk Utility on a working Mac. However, the other option is to use a VM to run OS X temporarily (scroll down for that info). On a Mac: • Download Lion from the Mac App Store. The installer should show up in your Applications folder. • Right-click on the installer and hit 'Show Package Contents'. Navigate to Contents > SharedSupport and look for a file called 'InstallESD.dmg'. • Open up Disk Utility and drag the DMG file into the left-hand sidebar. Enter a name for the drive, such as “macOS bootable USB” and click OK. Click Yes to confirm. If the formatting completed successfully, click OK to continue. Right-click the USB flash drive, and select Restore with Disk Image. On the warning message, click Yes to confirm the data on the USB drive will be erased. Some Mac uses like to create a bootable USB installer drive for macOS High Sierra. A bootable install volume of macOS 10.13 allows users to perform a variety of tasks including formatting and clean installs, updating multiple Macs from the same USB flash drive installer (and without re downloading), and to use as a troubleshooting boot drive should the need arise, amongst other benefits for advanced and more technical users. If you're burning it to a DVD, insert your DVD, select the disk image in the sidebar, and hit the 'Burn' button. Skip down to the last step to use it. • If you want to burn Lion to a USB flash drive, plug it in and click on it in the left-hand sidebar in Disk Utility. Go to the Partition tab and select '1 Partition' from the dropdown menu. Choose 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled) on the left. • Hit the Options button under the partition table and choose 'GUID Partition Table'. You'll need this to make the drive bootable on a Mac. Hit the Apply button when you're done to format your drive (note: it will erase everything on the drive). • Click on the 'Restore' tab, choose the InstallESD.dmg file as the source and your flash drive as the destination. Hit the Apply button and it will create your bootable USB drive. • Reboot into OS X and hold the option key when you hear the startup chime. You can boot into your DVD or flash drive from there. On a PC I know this works with Snow Leopard, but I'm not sure about booting Lion in Virtualbox. My suggestion is: • Acquire a Snow Leopard iso image • Use to convert the Lion dmg into an iso • On Virtualbox click 'New' • Choose OS as Mac OS X and click on 64bit or 32 bit (depending on your system) Snow Leopard • Choose VDI as storage and click next • Click on Dynamically Allocated space • Give 4096 MB of Ram for optimum performance or you can also give 2048 • Once finished click on the Virtual OS you just created and click on settings. • Go to storage and click on the disk below the vdi storage. • Click on the empty disk button on the right side of the window. • Choose the.iso file you converted earlier. • Just click ok and start the Virtual OS.
