iPirate Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Compress it (Archive it if you're in Tiger) with a right-click and burn all you can to optical media such as CD or DVD would be safest I would think. And secondly, be careful about leaning on your S key whilst typing, it looks like it could get stuck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/83115-kext-files/#findComment-590203 Share on other sites More sharing options...
westwaerts Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 if you are not good in terminal + unix commands, do yourself a favour and use the little app kexthelper (you will find it with search) for installing kexts, it repairs the disk permissions and the system will load them at reboot. thats convinient for newbys, before you mess up your system.
