EDIT: This thread is obsolete since RehabMan updated his guide. You can safely ignore it.
This is just a very brief HowTo for the beginner. It's only the outline, for some models extra steps may be necessary.
Follow this guide but STOP RIGHT BEFORE "STEP 4: Post-Installation Using MultiBeast". Instead of MultiBeast use ProBookInstaller in its latest incarnation (version 6.1beta6 of as of this writing).
Run ProBookInstaller and select the options that match your hardware and OS version.
Click Continue...
...and PBI will install all required kernel extensions, create an /Extra folder with Hackintosh stuff, extract the DSDT, patch it, and save it into /Extra, and also deposit more stuff on your desktop. If this included a "DSDT Warning.txt" -- read it (before rebooting!) and follow its instructions.
Reboot.
That's about the basics that should get you up and running.
Note that is highly recommended to rerun the DSDT (and SSDT?) options in PBI whenever you changed your hardware.

- Kernel extensions: 1 option of the kexts (kernel extensions).
- DSDT patches: 1 option (only!) each
- for ProBook model,
- for desired fan behaviour ("original fan" means high rpm = noisy fan behaviour, "quiet fan" is more moderate, "readings" only enables sensors),
- and for display type (the "1080p screen mod" is also necessary for 1600x900 internal screens).
- Optional: The Atheros patch is only necessary for some Wi-Fi cards, see here. The USB 3.0 patch is obsolete, its functionality has been replaced by a kernel extension.
- SSDT is required for a first install.
- A system definition for a Mac that most closely resembles the hardware of your Probook (don't know whether this is optional).
- Chimera is a must, it installs the stuff required for booting into your new Mac OS.
- Optional fixes and Misc OS X fixes can be added later if necessary.
- Extra Tools are great, this option saves web searching and downloading later.
