X58a-UD3R | 10.7.2 | 'boot' Unix Executable file in root
  • Hi there, first of all: thanks a million for Kakewalk!
    I have been succesfully installing 10.7.2 as mentioned in the 'Successtories'
    http://www.kakewalk.se/forums/discussion/3361/10.7.2-gigabyte-ga-x58a-ud3r-v2-bios-ff/p1

    However, I have a question regarding the 'boot' (Unix Executable) file in my SSD root.
    Is it normal that it is present after a succesfull install with Kakewalk? (4.1.1)
    System won't boot without it obviously. ;)

    Is there a way to hide it? (cosmetic reasons) For example by flagging it invisible or rename it to .boot?

    Thanks in advance!
  • open terminal. type in

    chflags hidden /boot

    and hit enter. Executable is now hidden.
  • I figured that, also found out it is the Chameleon bootfile...makes sense.
    Had to 'sudo chflags hidden /boot' in order to make it work.

    Thanks!
