well i'm trying the 10390 preview, it works fine
i've an ethernet card, DLINK DGE528T.
i had to patch a kext with old style :
DGE-528T
Go into Terminal (in the Utilities folder). Edit this file:
sudo vi /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleRTL8169Ethernet.kext/Contents/Info.plist
Find the line: <string>0x813910ec 0x13001186 0x12111113</string>
Add 0x43001186 string to it.
Delete the 2 files: /System/Library/Extensions.mkext and /System/Library/Extensions.kextcacheIt does not work anymore in snow ?
Any idea plz ?
