Thank u msf5042 I will try that tomorrow. But that means that I don't have to write nothing where the EFI goes? Do I just leave it blank?

I attached my /Extra folder and my boot file (which goes in the / directory after unzipped -- it is just the latest version of pc efi). These files should be all you need.

Open the /Extra/com.apple.boot.plist with a text editor and change the "Graphics Mode" to the one that fits your display and replace my smbios file with yours. I am not sure if my dsdt.aml file will work for you, try it out though.

Let me know how it works out for you.

Hey sorry you also have to put your uuid and busratio in the com.apple.boot.plist

Can anyone tell what is dsdt.aml used for? So can I said that e dsdt.aml in e first page only works for EVGA motherboard? not for other brand motherboard?

msf5042 10-22-2009 04:03 PM

No it won't work for your board, google DSDT PATCHER and read some tutorials, it's one of the more important files in your setup

Hi msf5042, actually my motherboard is EVGA x58 micro. So to create the FINAL dsdt.aml, firstly use DSDT patcher GUI to create e dsdt.aml, then follow the step 6 of 1st page tp get e compiled dsdt?

Am i right?

msf5042 10-22-2009 05:11 PM

Just follow all of step 6

LAN operation on 758-A1
 
Followed this guide to the T, even using the dsdt from the thread and kexts... I have since been unable to get the ethernet on my motherboard to operate...

Slayer, you mentioned only the HDA had issues running out of the box... did your ethernet work fine immediately?

I found this quite odd since it worked right out of the box in 10.5.2 before updating to 10.5.7

msf5042 10-26-2009 04:16 AM

Worked out of the box for me, you might want to create a DSDT file from scratch. Also, look at airwalks link in his audio fix and download the file he talks about with a LAN DSDT patch, that might work for you

I cannot really follow that guide as IORegistryEntry shows no entries for a LAN card...

In fact, I reinstalled fresh from kalyway then to 10.6 and throughout the whole process OS X did not detect a ethernet card, at any point.

Could someone be kind enough to go into IORegistryEntry and look for their lan card as described in the guide airwalk posted? I don't think i'm crazy...

Before I fresh-installed, it would tell me "Not Connected" for both ethernet ports, and now they just don't show up at all.

I am using a 758-A1 board.
