I had difficulty with 10.6.4 - followed your guide using the newest Netbookinstaller. The result was booting through almost to the desktop. Freezes right at the desktop before the Dock appears. I did not update DSDT file. I only updated kext using Kext Helper (the updater from /Extra didn't work for me either)

I have a 10.6.1 with working ethernet, sound, bluetooth. Works great. Maybe I should just be happy, but if you have a suggestion to get to 10.6.4, I'd appreciate it.

cheers
(1) Don't use "Kext Helper" as its most likely installing KEXT into
"/System/Library/Extensions/" and that's not were you want then,
ONLY add and remove from "/Extra/GeneralExtensions" and then
run "UpdateExtra"

(2) The DSDT that Netbookinstaller installs is for another netbook,
so you need to replace it, ether with one you made, or from someone
else who made one for the 1000HE


"UpdateExtra" Looks at the files in "/Extra/GeneralExtensions" and
finds all the "dependencies" of the files in "/Extra/GeneralExtensions",
and then makes a "Extensions.mkext" containing both the files
from "/Extra/GeneralExtensions" and the "dependencies", the
"dependencies" are KEXTs from "/System/Library/Extensions/"
that are needed by KEXTs in "/Extra/GeneralExtensions"
