Monq Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 So I have RealtekRTL8111.kext in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.10/ to support my card, and at boot time I get this: kernel[0]: Kext com.insanelymac.RealtekRTL8111 - library kext com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily not found. kernel[0]: Can't load kext com.insanelymac.RealtekRTL8111 - failed to resolve library dependencies. kernel[0]: Kext com.insanelymac.RealtekRTL8111 failed to load (0xdc00800e). kernel[0]: Failed to load kext com.insanelymac.RealtekRTL8111 (error 0xdc00800e). kernel[0]: Couldn't alloc class "RTL8111" Then the card obviously does not work, what puzzles me is that after booting kextstat clearly says com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily is there and loaded. What gives?

Riley Freeman Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Copy it to /S/L/E. Loading networking kexts from EFI is unreliable. It works for install/recovery but not for normal OS operation. Has to do with kextcache I think.

MacUser2525 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I noticed the same thing recently when redoing my setup I needed to use Kext Utility to rebuild the system cache then it has loaded fine ever since from the EFI partition.
