Hello from France,;)
I installed Leopard on Samsung RV515, AMD processor, (IATKOS V7), and I can't use WIFI.
AtherosAR9285 is not detected
I installed IO8011Family.kext and DeviceMergeNub_atheros.kext but in Preference panel, network, I don't see my airport card.
I used Kext Utility, without any result. :'(
Any idea to solve my problem?
Thank you for your help

Install Snow Leopard (10.6.5 or above).
It'll work then with either adding your device id to the appropriate kext (Atheros 21 kext) or use DSDT injection for 0x2a device id ;)

Thanks for your reply, but I am not sure I can install 10.6.5 or above on PC using AMD processor.
Am I right?

Snow Leopard 10.6.8 legacy kernel available one level up. ;)
Snow Leopard is not the issue... at the moment only Lion doesn't work on AMD
