@xxxslayeriiixxxyou need to repair your permissions through "kext utility". If it KP rights away, boot in safe mode [ -x ] Download this file and its located in Utilities cid-8b65993ef55cf014.skydrive.li ve.com/browse.aspx/.Public/OSx86/Snow%20Leopard/Other%20%7C5inne%7C6?view=details

It didn't work. It KP'ed in while rebuilding extension.mkext

now im stuck at the blue screen after boot. Anyway to repair Permissions within leopard?

Author Update #2 @x986123 2009-08-29

You mean:

/sbin/fsck -fy
/sbin/mount -uw /

?

btw I installed it from within leopard (if that makes a difference)

Author Update #3 @x986123 2009-08-29

Field Note #1 @xxxslayeriiixxx 2009-08-28

you need to repair your permissions through "kext utility". If it KP rights away, boot in safe mode [ -x ]

Download this file and its located in Utilities

cid-8b65993ef55cf014.skydrive.li ve.com/browse.aspx/.Public/OSx86/Snow%20Leopard/Other%20%7C5inne%7C6?view=details

Field Note #2 @mormegil 2009-08-28

boot in single user mode:
-s -x32

then run:
rm -rf /System/Library/Caches
chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions
chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions
kextcache -v 1 -t -l -m /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/Extensions.mkext
reboot
Field Note #3 @daclothe 2009-08-29

can you mount the filesystem as read/write before running those commands?

Field Note #4 @xxxslayeriiixxx 2009-08-29

try what i said and it will fix it. I saw a thread u made in Insanelymac and people there said the same thing. i would recomend since you broke the install already, to do a clean install again. Once your done with your install, boot in safe mode [ -x ] and repair your permissions through kext utility.

im guessing you have the "No installer package" error in diskutility. Once you get your install up and running with no errors i suggest you do another clean install within your snow leo to another hardrive to solve installer packages issues. For some reason if you install from Leopard you get the installer packages error, but if you install from a SL system it fixes the problem and u can repair permissions through diskutility without the need of kext utility.
