maroder Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Hi, I will add a new network card (HP NC360T) to to my system which works OOTB. Therefore I will disable my current onboard lan which is currently recognized as en0. After deleting the obsolete Kext for my disabled onboard card, which plist do I have to delete, to get the first port of my new network card to be recognized as en0? Naturally it will be recognized as en1, which causes problems with Messages. Which other steps would be necessary (eg. rebuild caches)?

maroder Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 Here the solution for anyone with the same problem: 1) As OSX doesn't like more than two network cards remove the old network card from network settings 2) Remove obsolete Kext for the onboard NIC from /System/Library/Extensions 3) Remove /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist 4) Rebuild caches (I used "Kext Utility" for this) 5) Shutdown your Hack and install the new NIC 6) On the next startup enter BIOS and disable the onboard NIC 7) Save the BIOS setting and boot OSX After booting to OSX the HP NC360T will be recognized with en0 and en1.
