Wow. It works. I just had to unistall all the Debian stuff. And rebuild mol
from rsync. There exists nothing easier than that.

Thanks so far.

Some other problems, that may be related to the one above:

-----------------------------------------
....
---> DHCP server not installed
Ethernet Interface 'tun-<tun0>' @ 00:00:0D:EA:DB:EE
....
<*> Ethernet driver 1.1
<*> MolEnet: Link up at 100 Mbps - Full Duplex
....
Incompatible MOLAudio version!
-----------------------------------------



1) This looks like I should have a perfect network connection. But I don't.
At the moment as OsX is trying to initialize the network (while booting) it
takes a really long time. If I check after that in the
SystemPreferences-Network, there is a new device (en3) found. I tried to
configure this one on both ways DHCP (an other computer is running a server) 
and manually. None of them worked. 
DHCP: osx assings himself an ip.
manually: ping says  Network is unreachable

Where's my mistake?

here's my ifconfig output (Linux)
-----------------------------------------
eth0      Protokoll:Ethernet  Hardware Adresse 00:0A:95:76:48:9A
          inet Adresse:10.0.24.3  Bcast:10.0.24.7  Maske:255.255.255.248
....
 
tun0      Protokoll:Ethernet  Hardware Adresse 00:FF:46:3A:E7:D9
          inet Adresse:192.168.1.1  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Maske:255.255.255.0
....
-----------------------------------------

2) What about that MOLAudio stuff? I can't find a file MOLAudio in the
'MOL-Install' disk image. But I could find a 'MOLAudioDevice.kext' in the
extensions folder. It looks as if this does not help (may be it's the
problems source). 

Thanks for your help.
