Oh rite... Silly me... I assumed that the skge.ktext would work with my nforce lan... you can see I am losing my sensibilities with this...:) I have an MSI Platinum (1 LAN port).

Can I install EFI over an existing Leo install? Or are we looking at a fresh install?

Eagerly awaiting 10.5.1 Rev 2 or 10.5.2 Rev one (or whatever Zephyroth decides to call it) :)

I don't think that you also have the same LAN Port, or do you?

If you don't have two LAN Ports, only cpus=1 or using Wi-Fi works.

Yes, try installing EFI, and wait for Rev.2 at the same time!
Hi Puttabong,
I have tried the skge.kext for my marvell yukon card, on Asus a8n sli premium with no luck. It was registered and loaded in the extentions from system profiler, however, no new network interface available in the network section.
However. it works ok in my 10.4.8 tiger.. not in my leopard..
Any idea?

try with your tiger kext or with this FILES

I've tried with my tiger kext, no luck, same result. Now trying with your uploaded files..
thanks.. roisoft.

nope.. still not working... strange..
Actualy my ionetworkingfamily.kext file version is 1.6.0 about 6mb size, newer than the files.

Is there anything to do with parallels installed in leopard? as it also generate virtual connection in the network

I am about to install EFI, however, I wanted to know a few things:

1. I have patched the updates with Marvin's utility will EFI be a problem.
2. I am using NVInject for my GFX card again will EFI be a prob.

1. Shouldn't be, just make sure you replace AppleSMBIOS.kext
2. I'm using the latest NVInject with EFI v8 without any problems.

On 10.5.1, I installed EFI, and it's still freezing :(

On both ports.. :(

It's not a good idea to replace the forcedeth by the one in the wiki : http://osx86.wikidot.com/utilities-resources ?

iero.
