[h=1]G3258 processor[/h]iboot Haswell works great

Snow leopard install goes great

After Multibeast - Snow Leopard won't boot and no error messages

Continues to boot with iboot Haswell

Appears that Multibeast is not creating the boot files on the HD?

Well of course Snow Leopard will not boot. There is no support for your hardware in the kernel. Did you read the guide for installing on Haswell hardware? Says right there the only reason to install SL is to get the app store to download Yosemite and not to bother running MultiBeast because it does no good.

So boot with iBoot Haswell, install 10.6.3, download 10.6.8 update (combo), install the combo, reboot with iBoot Haswell, download Yosemite and create a USB installer and install Yosemite.
 
There are some other issues with the Haswell Celeron and Pentium processors. Apple do not support these processors past 10.8.5 - you will also need a compatible GPU to run your chosen version of OS X.

You can use Mountain Lion and install using the Mountain lion guide:

If you wish to use Yosemite then you must use Clover as it is able to allow you to set a false CPUID (CPU identifier) to trick OS X into running on otherwise unsupported versions of OS X. More information from the following links:

Main Clover guide:

Thread that describes the additional steps for your processor:

Search results using "G3258" as sole criteria:

You might get by using the onboard graphics on Snow Leopard but you will need a suitable GPU to set up any other version of OS X. :thumbup:
