Okay. I give up. I have tried repeatedly to remove the Extensions.kextcache and Extensions.mkext files from /System/Library -- with no success. I get to the terminal application fine by restarting with Command and S depressed, and I get down to the last line that says "sh-2.05a#: ". When I try to run the sudo rm -r (filename) command from that point, I'm told that the file is read-only. But just above that is a string of lines: Singleuser boot -- fsck not done Root device is mounted read-only If you want to make modifications to files, run '/sbin/fsck -y' first and then 'sbin/mount -uw/' I do that (seemingly successfully), and then run the sudo rm -r on the two files. Each time, I get no confirmation that the files have been removed, just the "sh-2.05a#:" at the beginning of the next line. After I reboot, and do a Find on these files, I find that neither has been removed. They are both still in /System/Library. One other possible problem is that above the "Singleuser boot" string is a line (just under the "IODeviceTree" line, that says: ATA Disk: Identify data is incorrect - bad checksum What's happening? What am I doing wrong? I'm obviously no programmer, but I didn't think I had to be. Any advice from anyone on this would be appreciated. Thanks. John L. |
