Virtual Box fatal error on installing OSX 10.6

Description

Cannot get OSX Snow leopard to install using VB on Suse 13.1. Snow Leopard DVD tests good on a Mac installation I have tried using just the Snow Leopard DVD as the boot device and also using the iBoot image method as the boot device. Snow Leopard fails almost immediatley after starting the install. iBoot loads up ok but when I then change to the Snow leopard DVD it again pops up an error almost immediately after install is commenced. I am sing an AMD Phenom Quad core system, 8Gb RAM.

I have attached the VB log and .png file. All attempts however much I play around with the settings result in exactly the same error

Scrub this - just found out that VB only supports Mac guest on Mac hardware and guest can only be 'Server' edition.... So why oh why oh why is Snow Leopard still listed as an installable option in the VB new machine setup options, and even in the latest VB release??????

Because these settings are the same on all hosts and having the OS type in the VM settings does not mean that the guest is officially supported.
