Hi m8s,

My PCI GA311 does not work in 10.4.4. That thing is in 10.4.3 (1111a) it works. Is there anyone who can tell what I should do? Please!

Replace IONetworkingFamily.kext in 10.4.4 with the one that came in 10.4.3, delete Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext, restart you hackintosh and you should be able to use your NIC again.

CODE
sudo su

cp /Volumes/<insert OSX.3 volume name here>/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext /Volumes/<insert OSX.4 volume name here>/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext

cd /Volumes/<insert OSX.4 volume name here>/System/Library

rm Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache

You can do this in either 10.4.3 or 10.4.4.

I'm so sorry for the stupid question, but could you tell what <insert OSX.3/OSX.4 volume name here> means?

Thanks m8.

Replace that with the name of your drive, usually the name you see under the drive in the finder. IE - Your drive's called 'Tiger' in finder, replace that <insert blah blah blah> with 'Tiger'

Is there anything else to be done after this??? I bought the Netgear GA311 because it was supposed to work out of the box. I'm running 10.4.4 (DVD hotISO) and I've followed these steps exactly and I get nothing. Do I need to chmod or chown anything??

Please be specific.

Thanks a terabyte.
