Hello,

 

I am trying to use Disabler.kext with BOOT-132.

And I have a question about Disabler.kext

I have looked any info about Disable.kext in Inet.

And someone is said that this kext can be used only to disable kexts which already listed in Info.plist.

Someone is said that this kext can be used to disable any kext (you just need to edit Info.plist).

 

1) So what is true?

2) There is any dependencies for Disabler.kext?

3) Why AppleCPUPowerManagement.kext still in kextstat output?

4) Could someone post or point link to documentation how to disable any kext with Disabler.kext (if this kext can disable any other kext)

 

PS. I need to disable AppleHPET.kext with boot-132. So I does not want to remove it from HardDisk. I want to save Leo untouched and do all things only with Boot-132.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Best regards,

Alexander

Disabler.kext has no dependencies and yes, in theory you can use it to disable any kext you want. Don't ask me how though. I haven't seen a definitive guide anywhere and I haven't looked into it because I don't need it on my system.

 

I've heard that AppleIntelCPUPM.kext is the only client of AppleHPET.kext, so it follows that you shouldn't have to disable AppleHPET.kext separately, if AppleIntelCPUPM is already disabled.

 

I don't know why it still gets loaded on your system if it's in disabler.kext...that's not supposed to happen.

Hello Beerkex'd,

 

Thanks for at least short clarification about Disabler.kext.

 

And thank you very much for AppleHPETDisabler. It is working.

 

FYI. Your link disable AppleHPET with Disabler.kext too. And Right now Both kexts (AppleIntelCPUPM and AppleHPET) in the list of kextstat, but it seems like they does not work. So I think Disabler.kext is loading Kext in some special mode (or something like this) and they just does not work.

 

Best regards,

Alexander
