RedBack Posted August 15, 2010 Author Share Posted August 15, 2010 LAN Thanks for the link. I have downloaded the Ethernet driver. Am in the process of reinstalling SL on the external HDD. Will report on how it worked. Has anyone seen a driver for the Realtek Wifi card. I found the Linux source for the Realtek card. Has anyone ported it to OS X?

FKA Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Glad to see someone installing on a Medion. I have one of these machines about 10 years ago (multi media PC, as they called it!). very well made and cheep !!

RedBack Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Glad to see someone installing on a Medion. I have one of these machines about 10 years ago (multi media PC, as they called it!). very well made and cheep !! I bought my Medion MultiMedia PC about 8 or 9 years ago. Great machine. Great value. Very compatible with OS X 10.5.x. Have not bothered to upgrade to 10.6.x, but will do when I get some time... just for the exercise. Now I want to get Snow working on the Akoya. I had it working but now it won't book with Snow anymore. Something has broken. Still looking for the Realtek WiFi driver. A netbook without WiFi is not much use. Booted with JoliCloud Linux. Sound, WiFi, Ethernet all work, so the Linux drivers must be able to be ported to OS X.
