Exactly on, my app is an installer I am making for our product, that needs a Kernel extension and has a Startup daemon in order for it to work.

I would use Apple's package maker to install, but I need input from the user before installing the stuff.

Thanks, I will try these methods.

I was wondering if there was any command in Cocoa/Obj-C to restart the computer, so that my app can do that when they push a button.

You can do that with NSAppleScript and a script like "tell application \"System Events\" to restart". But unless your app installs a kernel extension that can't be dynamically loaded, why does it require a restart?
