First off: I am a OSX86 noob (other than devouring almost everything I can find on the subject). I recently built a new system based on the P6T Deluxe V2 mobo (2 internal SATA hard drives, 6 gig RAM, GTX260 GPU, 1 SATA DVD burner, 1 IDE DVD burner). I have been reading everything I can get my hands on regarding installing OSX86 on this machine. The problem is, every build methodology seems to have issues regarding at least some limitation (no USB, no network, no sound, no graphics, etc.). I was under the impression that Snow Leopard would natively support a greater range of hardware, so now with its release, I am anxious to give it a try.
I am hoping that someone could point me in the right direction.
How compatible is my hardware; am I likely to get full functionality?
I have utterly no experience with OSX, kexts, efi, etc., so is there a complete guide somewhere that would give me what I need to do to get 10.6 running?
Am I better off waiting for a new iDeneb or iAtkos distro?
Sorry for all the questions, but I really want to give this a try.
