rebecca! Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I installed vanilla 10.6.3 using Empire EFI. It worked great except for video. I installed NV50Hal and now my PC is rebooting by itself before it shows the cursor (after the gray/apple screen.) How can I boot into OS X and remove the kext? I tried booting into a linux live CD and mounting the drive but being journaled it mounts as read-only. I tried -x but it doesn't work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro17 Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 The easiest solution is to install MacDrive in Windows: http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I installed vanilla 10.6.3 using Empire EFI. You could also use your Empire EFI CD to boot the retail DVD, run Terminal and delete the kext from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebecca! Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Got it to work! I booted into single user mode and did it from there, and then restarted and booted without caches. With empire EFI you do this by pressing the DOWN key when the mac partition is highlighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
