I used the following files that are all around on the forum:
Kernel for amd Snow 10a432
AppleIntelPIIXATA.kext
IOATAFamily (When I added this in the end... everything worked for me  )
NullCPUPowerManagement.kext
OpenHalRestart.kext
PlatformUUID.kext
boot efi 10.1
The rest of the files are from the guides as mentioned. LIke I said... the UUID and dsdt.aml... with the kexts was very important.
I have all my kexts in the extras folder... except the two ATA ones... i copied them to the S/L/E folder and repaired permissions with chmod and chown..
And it works...
GMA 950 isn't workin 100% yet, and I get kern panic on full screen RSS screen saver or any video I want to run... but I think the solution is in adding the efi strings.
It loads the driver... but at the moment.. when I have time... I will look in to it further.
Good luck... it's worth it.... had 10.5.7 running and 10.6 is a LOTT faster for me
ps...was so busy following between these guides... will try and see if I left anything out...
plus I am booting with just -v

Works for me! Confirming for an ECS 945GZT-M motherboard. I followed your instructions. I use the nVidia 9400GT so that was working with the correct EFI String.
For anyone else that may be wondering:
* Use the kexts and follow the install instructions.
* Make sure you visit the AMD thread below for more information on the modbin kernel
* Use the bootloaders from the AMD thread. I had no luck using the modbin kernel with Chameleon r431 and better luck with r640. The thread has all the necessary files and kexts!
[AMD] Snow Leopard 10A432 Install
*Do not forget to use the kext utility to rebuild your caches.
Note: I cannot get 64bit with this kernel. I personally prefer the 32bit kernel but anyone who is looking to go 64bit will have until another kernel or method is released.
MB: ECS 945GZT-M v1.0
CPU: 1.8 Ghz Pentium Dual-Core E2160
GPU: 512 Mbyte nVidia 9400GT
RAM: 2 Gbytes
Drives: 80gb SATA, 80gb PATA, DVD+RW PATA
Thanks!
