First off I would just like to thank all the hard work everyone put into this to make it possible, this website has given me a lot of help and I have had major success.

 

I have a custom built core duo 2.66 GHz, radeon x700 graphics card and realtek HD audio card. Everything runs well, I changed the audio kext file and the audio works awsome, I also managed to make it possible to use my usb mouse and ps2 keyboard. The only issue I have left though is my wireless card, I have read and tried the tutorials all day, this is what I have and this is what happens:

 

I have a linksys wmp11 v2.4 pci wireless card its veddor id is 14e4 which I read was supported, I understand that this card uses the broadcom chipset.

 

I did everything the tutorial said with editing the IO80221Family.kext and after I finish, I reboot and get the "You need to restart your Mac" error message. I have come along way and have been at this for two days, I am not about to give up and the help I have got from this awsome forum has made that possible. Please could someone give me some imput. Am I doing something wrong? is there a kext file someone could send me? Anything to help would be great. Oh one last issue, I have used Acronis to dual boot but I prefer chain0. I added the line C:\chain0="Mac OSx86" to my boot.ini and it does nothing and goes straight to Windows XP. what is my fault there?

 

Anyways thanks in advance for the help.

Ok so I booted up osx again and did the "ctrl" "alt" "shift" to boot in single user and I moved the IO80211Family.kext file, restarted and Mac OSx boots up again so it is definatly that kext file. anyone got a working kext file with a wmp11 wireless card?
