Kalyway 10.5.1 on Acer Aspire 5570ANWXCI Up and Running and Using it to Post this at Last! ;-)

[franciz]

After the loooonnng hours of installation and re-installation, i finally got my Acer Aspire 5570 up and running on Kalyway 10.5.2, use EFI and SSE2 for the first options, apply sound package and use boot mbr since i did a dual boot with Windows Vista residing on a single HD. The only part thats a real pain in the is the LAN and the Wifi. After installing Microsoft Office 2008 everything is sailing smooth but with one catch... ALAS!!! i have no internet, and for a guy like me this means your "excomulgado" to the outside world. I tried to look for solutions on the LAN and Wifi on all sites but to no avail. The solution... Dlink DWL-G122, by downloading the files for this as its out of the box mac installer stinks, well im finally using it right now as write this post. Thanks a lot to all whose painstakingly uploading support on insanely mac. WOW its the challenge of the century to me and its sure is worth the effort!!!
