I've installed the flat image of Leopard GM to two of my SATA drives. Everything appears to work well except for one nagging problem. I modified the AppleYukon2.kext info.plist to recognize my onboard Marvell 8056 ethernet controller using these commands:

 

 

Open the terminal from /Applications/Utilities and type the following:

 

sudo nano /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon2.kext/Contents/Info.plist

 

(find and change: <key>Yukon-88E8053</key>)

(to: <key>Yukon-88E8056</key>) <-- change "53" to "56"

 

(find and change: <string>0x436211AB</string>)

(to: <string>0x436411AB</string>) <-- change "62" to "64"

 

(find and change: <string>Yukon Gigabit Adapter 88E8053 Singleport Copper{:content:}lt;/string>)

(to: <string>Yukon Gigabit Adapter 88E8056 Singleport Copper{:content:}lt;/string>) <-- change "53" to "56"

 

Ctrl O <--- Thats letter O

Enter

Ctrl X

 

sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext

sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Extensions.mkext

Reboot.

 

After rebooting your LAN might not be working yet and showing up as disconnected. Do the following.

- Go to System Preferences, Click on the network icon.

- On the left pane select your ethernet, on the right pane where it says "Configure" select "off".

- Click apply.

- Now back to "Configure" select "Using DHCP". Click apply.

- Your LAN should be working by now.

 

 

However, this doesn't seem to work. In addition, when I try to use Disk Utility to verify my disk, verify permissions, or repair permissions, I receive these errors:

The "desktop" error is a little strange as well. Now, before I change that info.plist file, I can verify and repair with no problem. This occurs on both of my Leopard installations.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
