Try and report back ... if you have issues then its the IVY CPU and you should see if you can borrow a Sandy Bridge CPU for OSX10.6 then once you make that USB you can swap out the CPU's and install OSX 10.8 you will not go back to 10.6 w that IVY CPU - also if you want you can download the Apple update 10.6.6 inorder to get to OSX LION or ML as that is the minimum level to do it.
