EDIT: I'm a bit late with upgrading to Snow Leopard (just a few days!) but MacPorts has a package available which should work with Mac OS X 10.6.

If you want to use MacPorts on Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and can't wait for the next release, you best get the latest from the SVN repository (posted on MacRumors):
  1. Get the latest XCode first: the one you installed on Leopard might not work. ./configure will fail not finding a decent compiler.
  2. Open up the Terminal
  3. shell> svn co http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk/base/ macports-base
  4. shell> cd macports-base
  5. shell> ./configure
  6. shell> make
  7. shell> sudo make install
  8. shell> sudo /opt/local/bin/port -v selfupdate
Note: 'shell>' denotes the prompt in the Terminal application.
