Time Machine "The backup volume could not be found" and "Time Machine could not be configured The built-in network interface could not be found".

Time Machine sais:
The backup volume could not be found
and
Time Machine could not be configured
The built-in network interface could not be found


This worked for my hackintosh, I hope it works for you as well!

1. Open osx86tools
2. Click on "Add EFI Strings/Boot flag"
3. Click "Ethernet settings"
4. Click "Import string to boot editor"
5. Click "Apply changes to com.apple.boot.plist"

If you get the Applescript /bin/sh error, check the previous blog post on fixing that one
