Espionage724 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Marvell Yukon 8E8038 is not a native Apple ethernet device. However, it is possible to mod the AppleYukon2.kext to accept it. The only way for some laptops to even read that the device is there is to have a PCI bridge driver. This was possible on Leopard with the use of Chung's pci card drivers. I tried these on Snow Leopard and it KP'd. Anyone know of a solution?

Anyone know of a solution? hmmm you dont need to even replace the pci card drivers just edit the info.plist of the yukon2.kext which is located in ionetworkingfamily.kext plugins open the plist file in text editor and type 8053 this should give you two matches; replace this with 8038 also under the 8053 section ( which you replace with 8038) change the 436211ab to 435211ab save the file and repair permissions REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON YOUR HDD !!! restart Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/192875-marvell-yukon-8e8038-and-snow-leopard/#findComment-1303308 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espionage724 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 Didn't do anything for me. Ethernet is still undetected :/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/192875-marvell-yukon-8e8038-and-snow-leopard/#findComment-1303389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espionage724 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 I use Chameleon and I used the EthernetBuiltIn=Yes and it lists the PCI address of my Ethernet card (I see it if I use Wait=Yes). Still System Profiler nor Network settings say it exists though Halp?
