About the 82566:

did you follow the tutorial from Dingguijin?

 

You have to modifiy the Info.plist with this method.

 

Also, you can try to remove AppleIntel8254XEthernet.kext from the System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/ folder.

Ok,

You can modify the Info.plist in the Intel82566.kext : the important part is the dependancies.

under <key>OSBundleLibraries</key>

there are what you have to modify regarding your system, so you open a terminal and type "kextstat".

And you modify the OSBundleLibraries (in the plist) with the values displayed in the terminal.

 

In fact if you have

 

<key>com.apple.kpi.bsd</key>

<string>9.2.0</string>

in the plist and you found

2 37 0x0 0x0 0x0 com.apple.kpi.bsd (9.5.0)

in the terminal (kextstat command), you modify the plist as:

<key>com.apple.kpi.bsd</key>

<string>9.5.0</string>

 

 

And for everything in the OSBundleLibraries of the plist.

According to kextstat this is my plist:

 

 

<key>OSBundleLibraries</key>

<dict>

<key>com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily</key>

<string>1.6.0</string>

<key>com.apple.iokit.IOPCIFamily</key>

<string>2.4[b/]</string>

<key>com.apple.kpi.bsd</key>

<string>9.0.0</string>

<key>com.apple.kpi.iokit</key>

<string>9.0.0</string>

<key>com.apple.kpi.libkern</key>

<string>9.0.0</string>

<key>com.apple.kpi.mach</key>

<string>9.0.0</string>

</dict>

 

After that i've save the Intel82566MM.kext , copied the files in extensions folder , fix permission and reboot

 

Now , where I see the network adapter options?

 

Bye

Did you check that the kext was loaded properly?

You can boot with "-v" flag and see if there is no problem or conflict with this kext.

 

And after, you can open System Preferences, Network, click on the little button "+" to add an interface, and you should see ethernet.
