I would like to load a kernel extension from my code preferably without invoking kextload. The nice APIs to do this seem to be private in Leopard with the exception of the kld.h functions that I'm not sure I understand. -Tim Um, this is asking "How do I do X, but without using the clearly defined, supported method of doing X." There are a number of operations where the supported way for code to do X, is to just launch another process to do the work, then look at the output of that process to figure out if it succeeded and/or what the results of the operation are.
