jaminmc Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Ok, So I got tired of always trying to type this in or something, so I made a simple little script that I just double click, type in my root pass and it does it for me. With all the posts of people's Kext's not working because of incorrect permissions, this fixes that variable. It also removes Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext for you. Anytime I do anything with Kext's. I run this. I even have it repair all permissions too. permissions.command.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35020-here-is-a-script-to-correct-ktext-permissions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaminmc Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 easy #!/bin/bash sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions Yes. My script has that. Plus it also removes Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext for you, and repairs the permissions on the whole volume.
