1) With ApplePS2Controller, plugin USB keyboard. When prompt, select ISO keyboard, if you don't get prompt, then go to Keyboard preference and click change keyboard type.
If you were trying Dr. Hurt's kext, read my comments. See the version I have tested to work. I can't remember since I have tested a few.
2) Not sure why a few are not able to detect the Ethernet, mine picked it up just fine. Can you confirm the you have Intel Ethernet and not some other brand?
Also check BIOS that it's enabled.
3) Make sure you copied AppleHDA_ALC293.kext to /Library/Extensions and repair permission and rebuild cache. Looks carefully in the output that you see AppleHDA_ALC293 is permitted and cache was build successfully. Error 17 can be ignored, but if error 77, run the commands again.
