Doing this, as far as I know, is illegal -- and we don't support such activity:

In terms of the Mac OS, the EULA provides, first, that you don't “buy” the software—you only “license” it. And that the license terms do not permit you to install the software on non-Apple hardware. Thus, if you install OS X on a non-Apple machine—making a “Hackintosh”—you are in breach of contract and also copyright law.

What he is saying is that this isn't the forum for your question, and you won't get much help on the official Apple forum either for the same legality reason.
