is it possible to run mac os inside virtual box? the online tutorial seems quite difficult...

yes, it's possible. In fact I ran mac os on virtual box and vmware before I fully migrated it into full installation and now running Windows 7 on vmware fusion.

where can i find a complete step by step instruction of installing macosx with dual boot on an existing win7 pc (with 1 hdd)?
all i saw on the internet are very brief...like install win7, install osx, install easybcd (or whatever dualboot app). can't find step by step/picture guide for noob.

in my opinion, it is very confusing cos it didn't mention the partition part before installing osx.

anyone can help?

There are several ways.
But what i usually do:
Lion:
1. The easiest (but not recommended by Gurus): Use Unibeast by tonymac to make an USB bootable Lion installer
2. Boot up the USB, if no KP, you'll able to see the installer windows.
3. Go to disk utilities, create 2 partition; GUID; 1 for mac, 1 for windows
4. once done, don't proceed the installation. restart, and put windows 7 dvd. before formatting the partition, please delete the partition, then recreate it back, it will produce an extra partition called System Reserved. Install windows into the news partition (not the System Reserved clearly).
5. Once finished, restart and boot the Lion USB, and proceed install the Lion OS into the other partition stated as in step 3.
6. Once finished installing Lion, install Chameleon bootloader. So, after this, every time u fire up your computer, you can reach your mac partition by the partition created in step 3. And also you can start the windows partition by boot up the System Reserved partition (not the windows partition)

There are several reason behind all of the step. And yeah, its work really well for me.


Man.. I'm not read your post carefully, seems like i'm not answering your prob. Sorry.

@Digswell

Help me on something. I got a Dell Latitude E5420 from PTJ. Successfully install the Lion, every things works perfectly. The only problem is, i can't get Dual Display on it. The VGA port seems like not functioning. QE/CI is functioning, but still no output on VGA display.


Added on December 23, 2011, 8:33 pmAnd yeah, i'm not using any dsdt, just use GraphicEnabler as it has intel hd3000, so didn't want to do much works
