to do a clean install, you have to restart the mac with a burned
copy of lion on it, hold the c key, not sure how long, make sure
voiceover is running, pick utilities and disk utility.
you have to erase the entire disk. i had a bit of a problem at
the next stage so i decided after exiting disk utility to restart
the mac and do the c key sequence again.
you then choose the install option from the menu that appears .
that should give you a fresh install.
i made the mistake of not erasing my disc so it came up with my
original settings and also as to why i was not asked the
questions for a clean install ie to select the keyboard etc.
hope this helps.

That is correct. In fact, when I asked an apple rep about doing
a clean install, I was basicly told that it can't be done.
Obviously, this isn't the case, and once an update or tow has
been released to fix some of the more serious bugs, I intend to
attempt a clean lion install, but the rep I talked to basicly
said that by doing it as an update over top of SL, I was doing
it correctly, and that a clean install wouldn't resolve any of my
issues. So, even if I do try a clean lion install some day,
I'm going to keep the backup I made prior to going back to SL,
because all my voices, settings, etc. are in place on that
backup.

Because, Lion as far as i understand it was supposed to be
installed over the top of Snow Leopard. It's just me being me,
opted to do a fresh installation, which is something I always do
with new operating systems.
