Here is a short outline of an install for Sandy Bridge....
-------------------------------------------------------------------
How to do a sandybridge cpu w compatible hardware OSX hack 10.6.8 build. jester969
Typical installation steps are:
1) iBoot + Disk Utility + install Snow Leopard DVD (perform install via DVD) reboot
2) iBoot + Installed OSX HDD (boot with iBoot and loading OS via newly installed HDD) - get welcome screen
3) Run Update Helper and Reboot?
4) iBoot + Installed OSX HDD, run combo update 10.6.8 , DO NOT reboot
5) Run Multibeast and select option which are required to your board and run System Utilities.
6) Reboot w/out iBoot
Audio/Ethernet/DSDT
DSDT and BIOS firmware must match to the corresponding number.
This generally works...
Some tips - as GB has pointed out using 10.6.7 can be a benefit
also install MultiBeast in Sections and the RUN the MultiBeast SYSTEM UTILITIES separately before reboot.
