Elad Nava Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Hi everyone, I have a question, I think it's something I'm overlooking, I hope someone can shed some light on my question. I understood that iAtkos v7 uses the chameleon bootloader which allows having the /extra directory for kexts not to be overrided during upgrades, and now I see an available update from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8 in my Software Update... So if I went ahead and checked all of those drivers needed for my system during customization of iAtkos v7 how come they are not in /Extra? If I upgrade will I not be able to boot correctly? Thanks for the help! Elad Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/180839-i-found-extra-on-iatkos-v7-but-almost-empty/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerkex'd Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 If there's nothing in /extra, it means that your modified kexts are in S/L/E along with everything else. So your situation is the same as it is for everyone else who's running a hacked distro.

Elad Nava Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 But I installed iAtkos 7 which has EFI 10 or something and all the kexts I ever installed were through the customize button of the installation, I selected to use Chamaleon Bootloader and create the /Extra directory and everything, I don't see what I have done wrong?

Software Updater Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Why don't you go to the iAtkos forum? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/180839-i-found-extra-on-iatkos-v7-but-almost-empty/#findComment-1233922 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elad Nava Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Can you point me to it? I couldn't find it, or it was down or something when I tried. Thanks for your help!

Elad Nava Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 Good. I am just going to stop visiting this thread and if you feel I am a lazy bum then I agree.
