I'm new to this but with all the great info floating around the web I've been able to install 10.6.4 in a vmware vm. Everything is working great for my purposes (development), except that 64-bit apps won't run. When I try, I get "Bad CPU type in executable.", which makes me think that the cpu type is wrong somehow. The hosts cpu is an amd phenom II, and System Info in the guest is reporting a Intel Core 2 Duo, so both of those should be fine. But maybe I need a different kernel ? The one I'm running seems to have come with the bootloader I'm using "darwin_snow_legacy.iso".
Any help greatly appreciated !
