Administrators Hervé Posted January 24, 2013 Administrators Share Posted January 24, 2013 i thin you mean this section: ethernet: Type: Ethernet Controller Bus: PCI Vendor ID: 0x14e4 Device ID: 0x1673 Subsystem Vendor ID: 0x1028 Subsystem ID: 0x01f9 Revision ID: 0x0002 Link Width: x1 BSD name: en0 Kext name: BCM5722D.kext Location: /System/Library/Extensions/myHack.kext/Contents/PlugIns/BCM5722D.kext Version: 1111 in the configuration screen its says no cable connected, sure it is That's the LAN card. We all know the model on the D630. I meant the info for the Wireless card! Until we find out the model and ascertain the kext that supports it, you could stay in the dark... Maybe you don't need the patched IO80211Family kext at all. myFix repairs file permissions (ownership + Read/Write/Exec attributes) and renews Kernel/kext cache. Since you said your LAN had worked before but no longer was, I simply concluded that there was a possibility of a need for myFix. If IO80211Family is indeed required, you'll always need to use it and possibly port it at system upgrades. Regarding Lion update, do not update via Apple Menu -> Sotfware update or you'll screw up your installation. Download and install the 10.7.5 combo update off Apple website and, before reboot, re-run EDP kext installation. Read-up past threads, it's all out there.

Administrators Hervé Posted January 24, 2013 Administrators Share Posted January 24, 2013 You're free to do as you wish naturally (it's your install / re-install), but that's not what I would recommend: 1) combo update 2) re-run EDP kext installation 3) reboot into updated Lion There's probably been too many guides on this model. Just stick to the EDP procedure as explained in the EDP pages of the OSXL web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas van dalen Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 oki i did that, to bad that the main guide on the site doesnt explain how to update but thnx man im downloading the update now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas van dalen Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 mm, is it much better to use a custom bios? there is one available for my dell d630 but is it really needit or does it improve the system if i install the bios? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted January 24, 2013 Administrators Share Posted January 24, 2013 No, keep your laptop as it is. Once you know a bit more about Hackintosh, then you can look at what the Custom BIOS does (or does not). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas van dalen Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 oki well thnx for everything mate!I got it working all now going to update with combo update and then rerun EDP --> select (1) and then reboot, i dont think this will be a problem.(not sure if i have to install the wifi kext again) but i will see then, i think i dont need but if i need it im going to install it with kextloader again, if the problems of the lan accurs again im going to run the myfix again so it should work again). I dont think im going to flash the BIOS cause everything is already working great now! I Also have a ML version on my Desktop. I now apple going to bring out the 10.8.3 soon, do you know if i can update ML from apple menu? Is there any paypal link so i can donate a few beers? im really glad to have this working now!

thomas van dalen Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Everything works great now, this is what i did Get BIOS Settings as provided post on the forums! Make sure to disable to WIFI in the bios to prevent Kernal Panics (crashes) Step 1. Create Lion OSX 10.7.2 (not higher!) Usb Disk With Myhack. Download bootpack for model, (included the kexts DSDT etc.) Extract the downloaded bootpack Open Myhack again and choose the Extra folder that you downloaded from the bootpack file. Step 2. Boot from USb and Install OSX Step 3. Install latest EDP, press (1) Configuration and choose model Step 4. install IO80211Family.kext with kextloader. Step 5. at this point wifi should work Reboot and run my hack --> myFix on the system device / Step 6. Download and install the OS X Combo Update from apple site, NOT from apple update! DO NOT reboot yet, RUN EDP pack again choose (1) and choose model, then its safe to reboot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted January 24, 2013 Administrators Share Posted January 24, 2013 Congrats, you've now followed the myHack/EDP procedure and got yourself a Hackintosh! Disabling wifi in the BIOS is not necessary when you have a supported card. Again, you might not need the patched IO80211Family kext, depending on your card model. But, until you tell us what it is, we'll never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
