keggers Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 {censored}, I accidently did rm -r /system/library/extensions and missed the .mkext at the end! Can I put these back some how before I reboot? I've done nothing since...

hecker Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Hmm, I don't think you'll be seeing those again bro. What version of OSX are you using? hecker Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/42773-aww-crap-deleted-all-my-extensions/#findComment-305907 Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggers Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 10.4.8, Is there no way I can replace them off of the cd before I reboot?

Ferret-Simpson Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 No. Backup your system to DVD before you reboot, then install from scratch and restore backup.

keggers Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 Sorry for my ignorance, but are you refering to some special backup, or just a regular data disk?

Ferret-Simpson Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 That's ok. Just literally copy your files onto a data disk. Save everything you need and format your system fresh. Always the best option if you screw up your system installation - Saves grief from having two partial installations, which Windows is notorious for.
