VMware Networking

[DrewPalmer04]

I have installed the JAS 10.7.8 SSE2 SSE3 blah blah...my problem is...

 

I have tried to get networking in my install for quite some time. Things I have tried:

 

Maxxuss-AMDPCNET-v1.0

anddd..i even tried my ethernet cards actual driver for Mac os

RTL8193~ I'm so confused on why this is doing this. I had another version of MacOSX that worked fine with the above Maxxuss..." thingy...but it wouldn't open Itunes...or programs ect. I believe it was called x86-tiger.gz or something (i'm sure you guys know about it)..soooo what do I do? I just want my networking to work like it did in the other version..but i want it in THIS version..

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Drew

You need to edit the .VMX file for your virtual machine. You want to use the e1000 type NIC in the VM config, and then MacOSX will just pick it up and work.

 

There are messages on this board which explain it in more detail, if you need it.

 

tiger-x86.tgz is the Deadmoo image. Its fast, but as you noticed, it is an old copy of MacOSX and newer programs don't work with it, so it is pretty useless these days.

Gnubeard is right.

 

Edit your vmx file to e1000

 

Then start OS X. Manually assign IP address (System Preferences, Internet, Configure) and DNS servers.

 

Then it will work.
