It has been recommended to me previously to do the privilege dance outside of /S/L/E and then move the kext into /S/L/E. The question then becomes where is a good place to stage the kext? And is this the right thing to do?
Yes, it is the best thing to do on any version of OS X, since it guarantees you won't end up with a partially installed or updated kext if the system crashes at just the wrong time.
Is this also the procedure that should be followed when you install your kext through a .pkg package? That would go against the idea behind a .pkg.
This is in fact how the kext is installed. Following the installation, the postflight script changes perms, etc and touches /S/L/E. ...Duane _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
