Using MdSymbol with MinionPro

[sebschub]

You could use something like

\documentclass{scrartcl}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{MinionPro}
\usepackage[onlysansmath,normalweight=autolight]{mdsymbol}

\makeatletter
\SetMathAlphabet\mathit{sans}    {T1}{\Mn@Math@Family}{m} {it}
\SetMathAlphabet\mathit{sansbold}{T1}{\Mn@Math@Family}{eb}{it}
\SetMathAlphabet\mathbf{sans}    {T1}{\Mn@Math@Family}{eb}{n}

\SetMathAlphabet\mathbf{sanstabular}    {T1}{\Mn@Math@TFamily}{eb}{n}
\SetMathAlphabet\mathit{sanstabular}    {T1}{\Mn@Math@TFamily}{m} {it}
\SetMathAlphabet\mathit{sansboldtabular}{T1}{\Mn@Math@TFamily}{eb}{it}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
\mathversion{sans}
\begin{equation}
  a+b \leq c = \mathit{d} \geq \alpha \approx \mathbf{m}
\end{equation}
\end{document}

Note the \mathversion{sans} and the onlysansmath! I found the regular MdSymbol too heavy, so I've chosen the light one (which is too light, actually, but that's better than the way around).

The original math symbols are not supported because there are not enough symbols for a consistent set of all mathematical symbols.

It's a good workaround, but the mathbf and mathit gives you original Computer Modern. How could I solve this?

I extended the example above. Hope this works.
