Well, I burned the installation DVD, but when I restart my Mac, I press Option after the chime, as instructed, but then I'm lost. I can't get VO to come on at this point, and I'm not sure what is on the screen. Has anyone else gone through this and managed a clean install of Lion without sighted assistance? If so, what do I need to do once I start with the Option key held down?
