Hi guys,

 

I finally managed to install mac osx 10.5.8 on my desktop (after a good 24 hours of continuous trying) and everything is running great, but i have a problem with running both gigabit network cards (or at least i don't have the driver for the intel 82574L http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/adap...t-overview.htm).

 

Computer Spec.

Motherboard: Intel dp35dpm

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad q9550

Memory: 8gb

Graphic. Diamond Ati Radeon 3650 HD

Apple Aluminum Keyboard (only work after the OS is loaded =/ )

 

Dual Boot with Windows 7 x64 and Mac OSX 10.5.8

Windows 7 partition is on a strip raided partition (so I actually have to go in the bios each time to change between RAID and AHCI to switch between windows 7 and mac os x (on its own sata hard drive)

 

Installed with iPC 10.5.6 PPF5 Final

Voodoo 9.5 but upgraded to 9.6 for 10.5.8 (I guess i should have installed 9.6 by default with the iPC distro =/ )

ATI Radeon HD 3650 PCIe(Intel)

Intel ICHx Sata Drivers

Sigmatel 9271 (but didn't work)

Intel 82566MM/DC

I'm not sure if i installed "Chameleon with SMBIOS/DSDT" or the default

 

After install:

Seatbelt.kext fix

and followed (second post) http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...58757&st=20 to get the sound working (although mute doesn't really work).

 

Followed this guide to update from 10.5.6 to 10.5.8:

So, here's my problem. I'm using my computer as a data storage server as well as my own personal computer, so I used the two network cards for load balancing in windows. However, when booting into mac osx, the intel 82574L network caused kernel panic. When removing the card, everything boots up fine under normal mode.

 

I don't mind if the intel 82574L card is not functional in mac os x (although it would be awesome to get it working or even better, use it for load balancing in mac), but I would prefer to install it into my machine, so that I can use it whenever booting to windows.

 

Does anyone know where i can get the driver for the intel 82474L card, so that both the onboard and pci network card working? or know how to make the Mac os to ignore the device and use the onboard card only.
