No Ethernet! Realtek 8168c will not pull IP!!
 
I have a working installation of SL on my Hackintosh but for the life of me cannot get my LAN to work. I have a Realtek 8168(c) NIC. I am not familiar with modifying strings and am hoping someone can advise me. I have tried installing realtekR1000.kext in E/E and S/L/E and followed the steps in a thread for ionetworkingfamily.kext plugin folder and still no luck. Can someone shed some light on this?

Thx in advance

cheers :-/

Download the latest mac driver from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...etDown=false#7 and it will work. You must use 32 bit mode though.

Thanks! I will try it and post my results. How do I boot into 32 bit mode?
