I've used the following method to get OSX 10.5.7 up and running on the Aspire One D150 netbook. I bought two of these from woot.com recently for 250$ each. So far, the only thing that's not working is sleep mode. I have to give credit to 'skateni' on the www.hackint0sh.org forums and 'xtractstudios' on YouTube for blazing this trail ahead of me. I primarily want to use this machine as a web/email/iPhone sync spot so even if it does not work 100%, if it does those 3 things, it will fit my purpose just fine.
Use iAtkos v7 10.5.7 DVD (where you find this is up to you.)
-Boot iAtkos v7 DVD
-Prep your hard disk with Disk Utilitiy, I used GUID partition table, 1 partition.
-Select the following items from "Customize" after running disk utility and selecting your disk to install OSX to.

+Wireless
*Broadcom BCM43xx (Choose this only if you have the Dell replacement card Dw1490,Dw1390,Dw1395) (Select)
*Post_Install Actions (Installed By Default)
After you reboot:
-Touch to click for trackpad – copy keyboard.Prefpane to /System/Library/PreferencePanes to enable double tapping on the trackpad. Set it up in System Preferences and Keyboard/Mouse
-Wired LAN – Use kext Helper or OSX86Tools to install AttansicL1eEthernet. Setup your LAN via Network Preferences. Connect to your network.
-Update via software update, all updates should work unless they're a system update i.e. 10.5.8, etc.

Wifi, Lan, Photobooth, iChat. Quartz, USB all work great, sleep not working yet. Otherwise, seems stable.
Leopard 10.5.7 install on a very portable machine. Great for an iPhone sync companion. Loving this little machine so far!
Discussion about
OSX86 Install method for the D150 that works very well.
Hi, I own the same netbook, and this distribution is the best for it!
However you can perform a better installation, selecting this drivers/patches instead of the mentioned above:
X86 Patches -> Decrypters: Leave AppleDecrypt selected, do not select DSMOS
Kernel: select kernel 9.7.0 directly, why upgrading later?
ACPI: do not select x86 ACPI, you don't need it.

Full walk through here: nazimjamil.com/ but still no luck as to how to make the netbook sleep :(
