Is LucyRTL8125Ethernet.kext broken with Opencore 0.62?

[tristan-k]

It seems LucyRTL8125Ethernet.kext is broken with OpenCore 0.62. Can someone confirm or deny this?

There is a workaround:

Make sure you install the appropriate kext ( LucyRTL8125Ethernet.kext ) within your EFI folder and Ethernet should appear under System Preferences -> Network! Then you'll need to select Ethernet, click Advanced, click Hardware, and Select Configure : Manually with Speed : 1000baseT and wired internet should connect. With Configure : Automatically selected, as is default, wired internet will not connect. Verification can be made by viewing the Ethernet port on the back of the motherboard and inspecting the lights; no lights on means the port is not active.

I guess you have to use a different NIC for osx installation from recovery image? Since you can't configure these settings in the base installer.

No, you can do the changes in the terminal from within the recovery.

$ ifconfig -m 
$ ifconfig en0 media 100baseTX mediaopt half-duplex

Is there any way to include this in the bootimage via opencore?
