Teresa, Yes, you did miss a couple of steps. Here is what I did. 1. You were right about finding the "InstallMacLion.app" open the shortcut menu and click show package content. 2. Find the folder called "Shared Resources". 3. Inside that folder, you will find a file called InstallESD.dmg. 4. Copy that file to a new location such as the desktop. 5. I think you know the rest. Launch disc Utilities and burn the dmg file to a dvd.
