Remove OSX Kexts via Ubuntu? Possible?

[P2000Camaro]

So I was testing drivers for my HD3470, I managed to get full res, then I messed around some more and ended up restarting to a black screen.. Booting with -x did the same thing.. I am able to boot into Ubuntu but it won't allow me to delete anything off the mac partition.. Is there a way around this? I can also boot into Windows, but I highly doubt I can do anything through there.. I could boot from the install CD and do it but I figured I'd exhaust all other possibilities first..

Try booting in single user mode -s

 

From there you will be in a terminal looking screen (but in full screen). Then you have to mount the drive using this command

 

/usr/sbin mount -uw /

 

Then just cd to the location where you installed the kext then delete it using

 

rm -rf kextname.kext

 

then repair/rebuild mkext

 

to restart, just type

 

"reboot"

 

You can look for simple guides on how the terminal works, ill be fun I'm assuming that you don't know terminal commands, so forgive me if I'm wrong.

 

Good luck.
