Hello all,

I have installed my OSX in my PC successfully, but I have a problem. When I run IFCONFIG it only appears the following:

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM>
inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128
gif0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1280
stf0: flags=0<> mtu 1280
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=2b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_HWTAGGING,TSO4>

media: autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex,flow-control>)
status: active

I have plugged a firewire card with a RME FireFace 400 and it is working, but FW0 device does not appear. I want it to appear because sometimes the audio card does not boot properly (host led remains in red) and I have to manually turn off and on the card to make it work so I was thinking about program

ifconfig fw0 down
ifconfig fw0 up

with automator during each booting in order to "fix" the problem..


Any idea?
Thanks in advance!

Mario.
 
Finally I have been able to fix the problem. The matter was in the Firewire card's position. I have change the position and now it works perfectly. I attach a pic for anyone with the same problem!

Regards.
