Hi, For what it's worth, the bss=0x0 is a grub comment, if grub's not loading the system it's a bit hard to know what's going on, particularly with a mac mini and the rather particular firmware it has.
I'm not sure the procedure that you suggested is quite correct. The driver usually gets loaded by default. So you'd want to make sure you did a rem_drv and then an add_drv after copying it into place. In addition, the procedure won't cause some other files to be updated which would cause us to associate the driver with newer device IDs. However, I'm not sure we have support for the 57765, to verify whether or not that's the case, can you share it's PCI ID? You can obtain that by running prtconf -d.
