huckleby Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Afaik, -x is only for safe mode, might still not be able to get to GUI, at least in my case it didn't work. If i have to remove drivers to be able to boot i usually type -s at boot. Then when you get a command line prompt /sbin/fsck -fy /sbin/mount -uw / cd /system/library/extensions then for example mv Yourwrongdriver.kext Yourwrongdriver.kext.bak or mv Yourwrongdriver.kext / then i remove all caches and reboot and usually i can get back into the GUI. Hope that helps... Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/116160-command-to-disable-graphic-card-drivers/#findComment-823263 Share on other sites More sharing options...
