Sailfish Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I am struggling with 10.4.4 and Network/Internet Access. This is what I tried to do so far: Dragged IONetworkingFamily.kext from 10.4.3 to /System/Library/Extensions in 10.4.4 Reboot - That didn't work. Opened Terminal And: sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext It wouldn't allow me to load the kext. It said NO! What is the best way to get this puppy installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaiOSX Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I don't think it says NO Can you tell us what is the exact error message ? (kextload -t) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailfish Posted March 1, 2006 Author Share Posted March 1, 2006 Upon Reboot it says (abbreviated): kext was improperly installed and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
