Sounds like he loves you enough to contemplate converstion to Islam. Are you saying that even if he converts you can't marry him because he'll never be regarded as anything but a Christian, or if he converts, would you be able to then?
Also, and this is the most important. Do you *want* to marry him? If he converts, do you feel like he's the one for you? I ask this because it's easy to not want to marry someone and hide behind a cultural reason not to marry. If he's looking to convert and you don't really want to marry, you need to let him know before he goes through all of this. Remember, he has a family with expectations too.
If you are in love with him, want to marry him, and he wants to convert, you say you don't know how to? Best place to go is your mosque. I'm sure there are things they can teach you and your boyfriend on how to convert and what needs to be done.
