I am new to the Hackintosh scene and looking for some direction that is probably out there. I really need to know where to start though. I want to get SL installed on a desktop that does not have Leopard. Overall goal is to triple boot:
Windows 7 RTM (on SSD),
openSuse 11.1 (on 100GB of WD Sata),
and SnowLeopard (on remainder of 250Gb WD Sata)
Hardware:
Motherboard: Asus P5Q Deluxe (bios version: 2201)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
VGA: NVidia GTS 250 512Gb
Optical: Lite-On SATA DVD +RW
HDD: 1 GSkill Falcon 64Gb SSD, 1 WD 250GB SATA, 1 WD 640GB SATA (data)
RAM: 8GB Corsair XMS DDR2 800
I have tried several methods:

I get different KP's ranging from NTFS 6 to MAC Version: Not yet defined. Does anyone have this motherboard with some successful steps? I am new to this forum obviously turning from the insanely mac forum for the lack of clarity. Your help is much appreciated and will not return void. If I can just get this going I can start to contribute to the community hopefully.

I used this guide to install to my Asus P5Q3 Deluxe Wifi@n using the bootcd method.
