Please adopt a way to Uninstall or Remove kexts installed previously through checkboxes or something like that.

Having a register of what was installed and an auto uninstall would be nice.

But to make this simpler, it would be nice if the extensions installed by Multibeast were color labeled by default. That way you could tell what is not original.

That would be very useful, for people (like me ) that get messed up with MultiBeast and that don't make any logs...

If you want to color your kexts you can do it after you run MultiBeast as the document has the names and locations for every option.

Kexts can ONLY be in /System/Library/Extensions.

The use of /Extra/Extensions was originally designed for use in earlier versions of OS X and is no longer supported.

Good to know...

I was using Digital Dreamer script with 10.5 a couple years ago and I didn't follow the scene much until few days ago...

Thanks for the update !

Do you know the reason for this decision? In my limited understanding this was a great concept to make sure kexts are not overwritten by osx updates.
