Field Note #4 @NghiaDev 2009-12-26

@smithmagge:
Before you can install Snow Leopard, make sure that you must have a working Leopard / Mac first

So try to install Leopard with iPC or XXX or iDeneb by googling it

After you got Leopard, then follow this guide to install Snow Leopard:

Field Note #5 @The Wanderer 2009-12-26

I would try SnowOSX Universal 3.6, It is a nice pre-patched DVD so it will save you the hassle of installing Leopard first, Google is your friend ect.

Field Note #6 @=)(= 2009-12-26 ↳ Re: @smithmagge
@smithmagge2nd- boot132.

Boot132 does not work with Snow Leopard, at least what i have been told.. try using Empire EFI 1.8 or 1.7 , google it ...
