This guide is for use with Leopard only! It will work with the following Marvell ethernet cards:
SK-9E21, SK-9E22, SK-9E81, SK-9E82, SK-9E91, SK-9E92, SK-9S21, SK-9S22, SK-9S81, SK-9S82, SK-9S91, SK-9S92, 88E8053, 88E8055, 88E8055-B0, 88E8061, 88E8062 (88E8061 Dualport) 1.) Find your vendor ID and device ID. I don't know what yours is, but it should look something like this: Vendor 11AB Device 4351 Write this down, you will need it to continue past step 3. 2.) Open terminal and type the following: CODE sudo nano /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon2.kext/Contents/Info.plist 3.) Scroll down and find the ethernet card you are using, for example, if you are using Marvell Yukon 88E8053, it would show up as: <key>Yukon-88E8053</key> Below your ethernet card look for IOPCIPrimaryMatch, for Yukon 88E8053 it looks like this: <key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key> <string>0x436211AB</string> After the 0x is the 4 digit Device ID, replace it with yours, and the 4 digits after that is the Vendor ID, replace it with yours also. For mine, I replaced 62 with 51 so it looked like: <key>IOPCIPrimaryMatch</key> <string>0x435111AB</string> When finished, overwrite and exit the file. 4.) Type the following command into terminal: CODE sudo rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.mkext 5.) Repair permissions by typing the following: CODE diskutil repairPermissions / 6.) Reboot using -x -v flags 7.) Reboot again and your ethernet should work PLEASE POST ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, AND PROBLEMS HERE AND I WILL HELP YOU ALL! |
