I am not familiar with multibeast and stuff like that, as I have the opinion that applying patches to OS X by yourself is usually the best way of having a hackintosh done.
To prevent missunderstandings, I think I should try to explain a little more... As you are on quite compatible hardware it's reasonable for you to use Vanilla instead of Legacy Kernel - this is giving you more options like the possibitly to enable Intel Speedstep, etc.
Note that even with using a Legacy Kernel you do not need to use the -force64 bootflag - this Kernel mode is designed for use with AMD and older (pre-Core-Architecture) Intel CPUs lacking some SSSE3 instructions necessary for 64-Bit support.
For use with 10.6.3 get 10.3.1 Vanilla Kernel here. Be aware that this Kernel has no Powermanagment Disabler patch (as it's unpatched ;)), so you should check if NullCPUPowermanagment.kext or similiar is beeing loaded on your system. To replace it move the old Kernel by "sudo mv /mach_kernel /bak_kernel" on Terminal and copy the mach_kernel from the archive directly to your OS X partition. On next boot up check if you are running Darwin 10.3.1 using "uname -v" on Terminal.
If you take a look into System-Profiler/Software you might notice that it will say that you are not running 64-Bit Kernel - this does not mean that applications cannot access 64-bit memory range, as you can see in activity monitor - if you want to you can boot into 64-Bit Kernel using bootflag depending on your bootloader, commonly this is arch= x86_64 on Chameleon and most of it's forks, but keep in mind that this requires all your Kernel Extensions (kext) to be 64-Bit capable... |
