influence Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Whenever I boot up to Leopard I get the applesmbios error saying that it wasn't correctly installed or needs to be updated. Where can I find the latest version for 10.5.2 and how do I install it? The way I've been doing it is drag and drop but I'm guessing there's more to it. Any help would be great, thank you.

Headrush69 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 You probably only needed to fix the owner/group and permissions. So next time, make sure you fix that before restarting, or for even easier method, download kext helper and let it install it for you.

If is not correctly installed,Open Terminal and type sudo -s sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/AppleSMBIOS.kext sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/AppleSMBIOS.kext rm -r /System/Library/Extensions/Caches reboot Now boot with the -f flag Next time use Kext_Helper to update any .kext Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/105435-applesmbioskext/#findComment-750062 Share on other sites More sharing options...
