Machine Specs:

About this Mac " 827GHz Unknown Processor "
Snow Leo 10.6.0 Retail Disc

System profiler " ATI Radeon 5770 "
Ripjaw 8GB DDR 1333 Kit.
About this Mac " 8GB DDR3 1333 "
I have a Silverstone FT03 Case and Silverstone modular power supply comming, I will add pictures when I get them.
Please note: I can confirm you can use Onboard Video OR the ATI card for install.
I had the HD plugged into SATA 0 (yes the white one) and the DVD drive in SATA 1(yes the white one, This also worked when plugged into the blue ports.)
INSTALL with only 4GB Stick in, I will tell you later when I put the other 4GB Stick back in.
Step 1 - Change the bios to HPET 64, and AHCI enabled.
Step 2 - Boot off of the iBoot Legacy Disc, F5 and refresh after swapping the disc for Sno Leo 10.6.0 Retail, Boot the Sno Leo disc and format HD to "Mac OS Extended (Journaled) / GUID"
Step 3 - Install 10.6.0 with no extra options, so deselect everything under " custom install" - After install is completed reboot with iBoot Legacy Disc and select your Macintosh HD this time.
Step 4 - Once booted into Sno Leo Open the following A- Combo 10.6.6, B- Bridge Helper, C-Multibeast 3.3.
Run the combo update and DO NOT restart.
Run Bridge Helper.
Run MultiBeast - I selected the following:
Easy Beast Install
System Utilities
OSx86 SOftware
Under Drivers and Boot Loaders Select "Chameleon 2.0 RC5 ATI Experimental for the 5770"
And restart after install. *Note* If MultiBeast Closes just re open it.
Step 5 - My system restarted and I got a black screen booting from HD.
So boot off of the iBoot Legacy Disc and select Macintosh HD.
Once in Sno Leo, I now had a machine with 10.6.6.
We need to ADD the PCI boot flags so it can boot past the Black Screen.
My boot flags look like this:
-v arch=i386 -force64 PCIUID=1 busratio=29
Save and shutdown.
Install the other 4GB Stick for a total of 8GB. Turn on machine
Step 6 - My Machine rebooted from the HD and no more black screen The ATI Card working 100% Dual screens.
The Machine recognizes all 8GB of ram at the right speed.
Finally Step 7 - AUDIO / NETWORK.
Run MultiBeast and select the following:
System Utilities
ALC8xxHDA
AppleHDA Rollback
ALC889
Reboot!
Sound is golden!!!
On to network
Multibeast - This would NOT get the network working.
Next Install the "Realtek RTL81xx.kext" I cant remember where from its the one that spits out a bunch of crap on boot about logs or something but it worked.
Reboot = DONE
Thats it. The only this is that the machine is not recognizing my Processor. Geek bench sees the proper Core i5 - 3.3 but about this mac says 800MHz or something weird.
