Hi everyone,
I'm trying to install hackintosh on my machine, wich I belive won't be easy. Please help me:

My configuration:
CPU: amd x6 1090T
GPU: ATI RADEON HD6950
RAM: 8GB
MOTHERBOARD: ASUS 890FX Deluxe 4

Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

will all work exept 6950 wich only works under Lion and that does not work proper on a 6 core phenom either ..so new graphics card or even a older one and you should be able to get a fully running SL in noo time using nawcom bootcd and a retail copy of SL

I have a retail copy of SL and can download the boot CD, but are you sure there's nothing we can do for my GPU? I read there were some kext developed recently.

[EDIT]
I just need to be ok as for the resolution. I don't need to use hardware acceleration

I would use the hackintosh machine only for CODA, the HTML editor. Also lion would be fine for me if you say it's a better option (as my brother has a mac I also have a retail copy of Lion). I don't want to switch card every time
