flibblesan Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Another feature for the tool which I think would be interesting, is a simple way to install kexts to the EFI partition. Currently I have to fire up a terminal and do: bash-3.2# mkdir /Volumes/EFI bash-3.2# mount_hfs /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/EFI then copy kexts manually to /Volumes/EFI/Extensions then run ./update.sh located in /Volumes/EFI/ I love the feature in OSX86Tools for installing kexts. It would be great if this new tool would allow you to select kexts you want to install, then automatically mount the EFI drive, copy the kexts, and run the update.sh script (or, actually, just do what the script does, which is set permissions and create Extensions.mkext). The finally, unmount the partition. The new version of Chameleon is supposed to have EFI partition booting support, so I think this tool will be very useful for that.. as well as being useful for the Munky method now.

I'm recovering from two HDD failures and anything to make it easier would help!!
