I have followed all the Knowledge Base articles I can find on the topic.

I have looked through as many forum posts as I can (FYI this forum setup is not great for that) access.
I have tried to use vm.bios.efi=0 , with no success.
I have tried the install from my legal retail DVD, a .dmg, and a cdr Master image. The DVD and CDR report as "Unable to detect operating system". The DMG detects as "OS X", but opens to a black screen with no processing or messages.
When I manually assign the physical DVD drive I finally manage to get... "is_file_exists(com.apple.boot.P/kernelcache)"
Followed by... "The virtual machine processor was rest by the operating system."
And it just loops from there until I kill the VM.
Are there any other settings or configuration files I can work with? Any other Boot Flags that may apply?
Host Machine: Mac Pro 2008 (3,1) , El Capitan 10.11.6, 12 GB RAM, GTX 980 (NVIDIA web drivers 346.03.15f11)
I am currently running on the Trial version of Parallels 13. I will not be buying it if I cannot get Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Server working on it within the 7 days allotted. VirtualBox is able to successfully install and run the 10.6 Server, it just doesn't currently have good hardware access and support tools.
