Here are my boot plists for OSX SL 10.6 install and from my 100% working Leo 10.5

BTW, in EFI studio when Display device is selected, I can only choose from list of Nvidia VGA cards, no ATI card in the list, and I have Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD3850.

Thanks in advance

Worked like a charm, thanx !

I had to use a retail DVD of Snow Leopard tho, my previous attempts (using other SL downloads) were causing KP's on first boot every time. . .

Also, do you think it is stable enough to run as main OS, I mean is it as solid as Leopard 10.5.8? And is there anything else you can tell us about the modbin test 7 kernel like what features it may or may not have, advantages or dis-advantages we should know about?
just curious. . .

I need help (feel like a noob)

I am somewhat confused as to how to install Snow Leopard. I have done all the prep-work from the guide. Problem is, after about 30% done it restarts (stating the install will continue after Restart). That's where I am stuck. I have my SL drive set to default but after it restarts, all Chameleon sees is my 10.5.8 and W7 installs. What am I doing wrong? How do I make this work?

Fixed

Ok, feel like a dumb-ass, but I fixed my own problem. Install went smoothly but having problems getting SL to boot; it keeps hanging on "DSMOS found" in verbose mode and does nothing. Any suggestions how to get past this? I have tried the classic -v -r -f -x and the result is the same. At least I am not getting any kernel panics.

You should be able to, but you will need a standalone graphics card for 3d acceleration as the onboard won't work.
