HelloJes, Your disk is probably partitioned in MBR format, and unfortunately Lion will only install on disks partitioned in GUID format.
Place the VO cursor over the dimmed disk and press VO shift H and it should tell you something similar to this. This is different from the filesystem your disk is formatted with, the "OS X journaled" you mention. Unfortunately, to fix this you will have to repartition your drive, which will erase the disk. To do this you'll need to burn Lion onto a DVD or USB stick and boot from it, start Disk Utility and repartition the disk and then proceed with the installation. The only good news is that this is all accessible with VO and the lousy "Fred" voice. HTH, André On Aug 4, 2011, at 5:14 AM, Jes Smith wrote: > Hi all, > I'm trying to install Lion.
