try booting with arch=x86_64 and see if that gets you 64bit mode and clears the problem.
 
No,
64 bit mode didn't solve the problem,
but thanks for the advice...
Any more tips?
Thanks!

and I am stuck with the iBoot Ivy Bridge
boot cd (it won't boot up any other way)

This is due to Ivy CPU and Sandy mainboard. IIRC, Snow Leopard was replaced with Lion about the time Sandy Bridge came out, so there is no support for Ivy CPUs. Suggest you upgrade to Lion or later version of OS X. Could also try finding a 2xxx series CPU to match your 6 series board.
 
sorry for the noob question, but I don't have a DSDT.
I also do not know how to patch a dsdt.
I have the kext installed and I am in 64 bit kernel.

any help is appreciated !
