Re: [Avid-L2] How to create a 10.6 startup drive on a new MacPro with 10.8?

I have to amend what I said earlier,

The newest Mac Pro ships with a graphics card that did not yet exist when
Snow leopard was current. You will need to obtain a driver package for
that card or you may have problems booting or have performance issues
