lilSoldier Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Two questions; is it a built-in LAN or a seperate card? Secondly, can you please post more details about the model number etc...

EzDvD Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 disable your onboard lan while you install and then replace your realtek 8139 with the attached kext. worked for me anyway AppleRTL8139Ethernet.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/75835-osx-leopard-installation-only-works-if-i-disable-lan-in-bios/#findComment-535770 Share on other sites More sharing options...
