Hi jgsacris,

I just did this today, so you are in luck!

First, install Mac OS X Lion. Nothing scary here. It went smoothly for me,
at least.

Then, once Lion is installed, you can install Xcode 4.3.

If you plan to have Xcode 4.3 delete Xcode 4.2 (like I did) after it
installs, you'll want to move /Developer/MonoTouch and
/Developer/MonoAndroid (if you also have that) to a temporary location
while you install Xcode 4.3:

In a terminal, run the following command:

sudo mv /Developer/MonoTouch ~/

That will move your MonoTouch install into your home directory.

Then download & install Xcode 4.3. Once that is complete, launch Xcode and
it will ask if you'd like to delete your own Xcode in /Developer. Feel free
to do so.

At this point, you can safely move your MonoTouch install back into
/Developer.

To do so, type the following commands:

sudo mkdir /Developer
sudo mv ~/MonoTouch /Developer

Now you'll need to install some addons for Xcode (such as the iOS
Simulators and the command-line tools):

Go to the Xcode menu and select "Preferences..."

Next, click on the "Downloads" tab

Now click the "Install" button next to "Command Line Tools" and any iOS
Simulators that you want (I installed the 4.3 and 5.0 Sims).

Done!

Hope that helps,

Jeff
