kamikaze2112 Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 I"m trying to install the titan.kext, but i can't seem to copy it to the /System/Library/Extensions folder. Terminal keeps telling me that titan.kext is a folder. should i be doing this another way? All the tutorials i've seen for the titan.kext installation just say to cpoy the kext to that folder, not how to do it.

Prawker Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 If the kext file has an icon of a folder instead of the white "lego". then you should delete that and download a new copy, if that still didnt work, try copying it with the Finder.

kamikaze2112 Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 (edited) looks like the white lego....i'll try it again tho. I can't copy it with finder either, cause it won't let me paste into the extensions folder Tried re-downloading and still the same issue. I go into terminal and type: sudo -s (i type my password) cp ~/desktop/titan.kext /system/library/extensions then it comes back with cp: /Users/Trevor/desktop/titan.kext is a directory (not copied). this is really quite frustrating Edited December 29, 2006 by kamikaze2112 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37152-titankext-problem/#findComment-264292 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mifki Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 copy with cp -R ~/desktop/titan.kext /system/library/extensions option, or just drag the lego block into the extensions folder Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37152-titankext-problem/#findComment-264301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaze2112 Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 copy with cp -R ~/desktop/titan.kext /system/library/extensions option, or just drag the lego block into the extensions folder That allowed me to copy the kext, but none of the rest of the install worked. I think i'm giving up on this board/cpu/vid card combo and goin back to my trusty 945GMF board. I've spent 3 days trying to get this thing going, and it's not working. Thanks for the help tho Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37152-titankext-problem/#findComment-264317 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawker Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 I dont blame you for giving up. this PC is giving me a lot of trouble with Titan as well, it killed my installation, i should really get around to fixing it Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37152-titankext-problem/#findComment-264658 Share on other sites More sharing options...
