GingerTea Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Please search the forums OR read the Official Wiki/Forum next time, Thank you... Lan-Freeze issue This is well known and should be fixed in Release V.2. For now you can use the cpus=1 option at boot load, or permanently put it in the bootloader: sudo nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist And replace the current string with this one: <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>-v -legacy cpus=1</string> Alternatives: If your board has got 2 LAN Ports, then do not use the nForce one. Install the proper drivers for your second Port, for example Marvell Yukon, and use it instead of nForce LAN. Also delete forcedeth.kext after you installed the drivers. This will fix the Problem. Also you can consider using Wi-Fi, which works as well. http://osx86.wikidot.com/known-issues http://osx.kbot.de Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerTea Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Sorry, muitommy, but your post is unrelated to the Topic. We are talking about Zephyroth's AMD Release here, which has LAN freezes as a known bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
