Hello,

 

Need to modify this terminal commands to restore one kext in my system, but haven´t any mac araund to know the correct phat to directories, can someone please tell me the correct ones?

 

 

system/lybrari/extentions ? (system kexts)

 

“sudo rm -R </path-to-directory-to-be-deleted>” : for deleting directories and whole folders. Kexts, as I learned, are actually directories.

 

User desktop ? is where I´ve the acpifamyli.kext to be copied

 

“sudo cp -R</path-to-directory-to-be-copied></path-to-destination-directotry-or-location/>” : for copying whole directories or folders to a new location. Again, this works for kexts.

 

“exit” : to go out of Terminal/command line mode and continue booting into GUI mode.

 

“reboot” : reboots computer.

 

 

thanks, hope to ear from you soon

You could find these directories yourself using the ls and cd commands.

 

/System/Library/Extensions

 

/Users/YourAccountName/Desktop (if you're logged in to your account you can just use ~/Desktop)

 

Kernel Extensions cache:

 

Snow Leopard:

/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/Extensions.mkext

 

Leopard:

/System/Library/Extensions/Extensions.mkext

Hello,

 

sorry for late reply, and thanks for help.

 

I could manage to replace the wrong kext, howeaver I styll can´t use my Iphone theatering function, the mac doesn´t recognize him as a network connection.

 

Do you have any idea on or what to change to make usb work correctly, allowing my phone to be recognized as a network source?

 

Thanks,

 

Pluda
