InfiniteMac OSx86 - [Installation/Help] Recommendation? / Advise

InfiniteMac OSx86 (http://infinitemac.com/forum.php)

- Leopard 10.5 (http://infinitemac.com/forumdisplay.php?f=85)

- - [Installation/Help] Recommendation? / Advise (http://infinitemac.com/showthread.php?t=2870)

This is everything i did

Code:

/sbin/mount -uw /

mkdir /Volumes/MacHD

mkdir /Volumes/USB

mount -t -hfs /dev/disk1s6 /Volumes/MacHD

mount -t -hfs /dev/disk3s2 /Volumes/USB

cp -r /Volumes/USB/AppleVIAATA.kext /Volumes/MacHD/System/Library/Extensions

cd /Volumes/MacHD/System/Library/Extensions

chmod -R 755 AppleVIAATA.kext

chown -R root:wheel AppleVIAATA.kext

cd ..

rm -rf Extensions.*

kextcache -k Extensions/

reboot

Everything as it should've happened but still getting waiting for root device. ):
Whenever I install iPC/other distro's there not bootloader it will automatically go into Windows.
I have installed it correctly before but I was missing kext's and foolishly reformated; and I have no idea what I selected on iPC customize;

probably cause your FlashDrive isnt called "USB",

do you have any programs like Portable Apps, or U3 on it? that would change the name of it... I have a 2GB Leaxar and its Called LEXAR

u could also try mounting it from Disk Utility, jst find the one that has the right file size(i.e 2GB or whatever it is) and click on mount if it isn't already

It diffantly did do everything. I'm hundred percent sure.

If I do s sudo -s, it asks for a password, then it seems to just drop out. I don't have a password, so I just hit enter...Does sudo supress output?

in single-user mode (-s)

Code:

/sbin/mount -uw /

rm -Rf /Sytem/Library/Extensions/extension.kext 

rm -Rf /System/Library/Extensions.*

reboot

This deletes the kext and also clears it from the mkext "cache" file that is normally used to boot up the machine unless otherwise specified.

you can also do the same style within OS X after you have it running... I prefer Terminal so that's how I'll show it

Code:

sudo -s

rm -Rf /Sytem/Library/Extensions/extension.kext 

rm -Rf /System/Library/Extensions.*

reboot

This is just my personal preference when dealing with kexts, so feel free to try other ways.

EDIT:

Either use the Terminal command kextstat then compare these to what is in your /System/Library/Extensions/ folder... or look at your System Profile -> Software -> Extensions...
