Installing Snow Leopard 10A432 on AMD System, Running Snow Leopard On AMD n Non Vanilla Kernel User

Before we begin to install Snow leopard On AMD system we need to prepare some file :

1. Kernel : Because AMD cant boot with vanila kernel..
for me the most success kernel is mach_kernel.test7 from modbin.
test7 its because its kernel number 7 i have test from modbin (all other kernel get me a KP)
you can get the kernel : here
2. Chameleon rc 2.640 pkg... you can get it from their website or : here
3. boot file to replace chameleon 2 boot file : here
4. DSDT.aml for your system. Google it to find out how
you will need a cmos reset fix in your DSDT.aml, DSDT patch also can be use to make your HDA sound working with vanilla AppleHDA.kext
5. Some kext like:

dsmos.kext - required to decrypt encrypted binaries
NullCPUPowerManagement.kext - attaches in place of the real AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement which doesn't work right on PCs (kernel panic, cpu running hot)
OpenHaltRestart.kext - very simple kext that makes reboot and shutdown work on PCs
PlatformUUID.kext - sets the platform UUID so that you have a uniform UUID from the very start of the boot.. this UUID is used in your preferences files (among other things) and I think it is important for a clean install to have this right from the first boot.

you can get it here

and you will need a snow leopard 10A432 dmg

Next Step Installing Snow...
(install from a working leopard)
1. prepare an empty volume with disk utilities n get the uuid of the volume in this sample name it "snow''

Make sure that the new volume's root directory is owned by the root user.

CODE

chown 0:0 /Volumes/Snow

2. Mount the installer
a. if you have a GPT (GUUID Partition Table)
mount the snow leopard installation dmg/iso

CODE

open /Volumes/Mac\ OS\ X\ Install\ DVD/System/Installation/Packages/OSInstall.mpkg

b. if you have an MBR partition u need to edit the OSInstall.mpkg or you can download : here
u can restore the dmg/iso to an empty partition and change the Osinstall.mpkg its located on /Volume/"some volume name"/System/Installation/Packages/
run the Os install.mpkg

3. Install Snow leopard to targeted volume
4. Install Chameleon Rc 2.640 to targeted volume.
5. Replace the boot file
5. Place the new kernel in the root of volume
6. create an smbios.plist and place in to /Extra (in the targeted volume)
this is the dummy:

   </plist>

change the UUID with volume UUID that u have before (point 1)
also place the UUID in the PlatformUUID.kext its located on PlatformUUID.kext/content/info.plist

7. Place dmos.kext, PlatformUUID.kext, Openhaltrestart.kext, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext in /Extra/Extensions/
8. Edit your /extra/com.apple.Boot.plist
this is just a sample with EfiString for my nVidia Geforce 9600 GT

9. Place your fixed DSDT.aml in the root of targeted volume
10. if you have other kext like voodooHDA or sumthing you can also install it (i use dsdt to get my sound working)

11. Reboot your PC and boot from targeted volume

Good Luck....
