Re: [Wirelessdriver-support] No installer with 5_1.mpkg?

[<ro...@sp...>]

Use Pacifist to install the b5 driver. The b5 installer is broken=20
anyway, it installs the drivers in the wrong place so Pacifist is the=20
best way to install it in the correct place. The kext file should be=20
installed in /System/Library/Extensions/ the prefpane in=20
/Library/PreferencePanes/.

  As I said before Archive and install is the best way to install Jaguar=20=

so you should install the b5 driver after you have installed Jaguar.
