For solving a problem with a drive, I had to uninstall/unload an external SSD Samsung driver.
Doing this, was reasonable easy: disable
SIP
in Recover (csrutil disable
), rebooting, sudo kextunload /...
, then rm -rf /...
. Driver unloaded and gone.
I backuped the driver thinking doing the opposite was that trivial, but looks it's not.
I copied back the file in: /Library/Extensions
, then I tried to reload the driver.
I tried with sudo
(sudo kextload /Library/Extensions/SamsungPortableSSDDriver.kext
), disabling again SIP
, even from root shell (sudo -i
). Nothing seems to work.
This is the error message:
Filesystem error: Invalid ownership (501:0) should be (0:0) on /Library/Extensions/SamsungPortableSSDDriver.kext
Any clue? Thank you.
