Hello!

 

Installed OS X 10.6 on:

HP Compaq dc7100cmt

4Gb ram (max)

Pentium 4 3.0 GHz (SSE, SSE2, SSE3, HT) (Prescott)

Audio works with AppleAC97.kext

Custom graphics (ASUS EAH6850v2) Works OoTB with 10.6.8

160Gb Apple Hitachi HDD (just for if it failed, i could use my linux install) (SATA)

1000Gb Seagate (SATA)

ASUS BD-RE

Broadcom BCM 5751 Ethernet (Doesnt work)

 

Has someone a kext for BCM5751?

I've tried one from LatitudeD630intel bootpack, no success.

Tried nawcom, no success...

 

or will I just buy Apple USB Ethernet adapter?

Look for the BCM kext of D430/D620/D820. Make sure to use the Intel binary version, not the universal binary PPC&x86 version. It's been mentioned in several threads (there's a detailed post about this re: D430 installation). You'll find the kext with a forum search on "universal binary" or on "BCM5751".

All Zero MAC address tended to be obtained with universal binary kext, hence why you should use the Intel version. Post us the output of Terminal command lspci -nn so that we can clearly identify your LAN card (needs lspcidrv.kext loaded), but HP documentation does indeed clearly state BCM5751 10/100/1000BT Ethernet...

 

Is it enabled in BIOS?
