1) A version of MultiBeast Mountain Lion that includes the latest Chimera version.
2) An iBoot-Ivy-Bridge for install on a USB stick.

I'm not a great computer pro, just an old guy who likes his Hackintosh, and who sometimes needs to revert to Sno Leo to clean up some Rosetta dependent stuff, so #2 would really be nice. I've looked and looked and can't find a straightforward guide to putting the iBoot-I-B ISO onto a flash drive that's bootable.

1) The next version of MultiBeast will have the latest version of Chimera.
2) iBoot is optical only, and it needs to be on a CD/DVD to install Snow Leopard since Snow Leopard is shipped on a DVD.
 
@Beelzebozo -- RE #1, Great! #2 -- I understand the issue for a primary install, but I just want to be able to boot an existing Sno Leo install on its own SSD, without having to run the iBoot-I-B CD -- the USB stick is much faster and more convenient.... I also understand that this kind of booting is highly provisional and unsupported, but even so....

That's what optimizing your installation with MultiBeast is for. You should look at some guides.
