So we know that these new i3/i5/i7s for the most part aren't supported yet by OS X. If you try to install, you'll get an instant reboot.

In order to avoid this, you'll boot using iBoot or whatever Chameleon Boot CD, swap out for the Mac OS X Retail DVD, and press F5, then you type:

busratio= and then your specific CPU's bus/core ratio.

So, for example, the command would be

busratio=23

For a Core i3-540. Simple! But as yet untested on a lot of these.

Below is a list of the bus/core ratio taken from Intel's site for all of their 2010 lineup.

The iBoot + MultiBeast method is designed and tested for any desktop or laptop running the latest line of Intel processors, the Core i3/i5/i7s. I have had reports of success with older machines as well including CoreDuo, Core2Duo, and even Pentium 4. However, AMD processors are not supported.
