Why are you trying to install 10.6.8? It should have a recovery partition to boot from. http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/
10.6.8 is Snow Leopard, which does NOT have a Recovery Partition.
10.7.x is Lion, which DOES have a Recovery Partition.
Right. The iMac had Lion installed from the factory. He wanted to downgrade to 10.6.8.
