Enable and disable Airport from the command line
Authored by: dagnew on May 19, '11 10:50:38AM

Disabling Airport from Terminal is exactly what I need as I have a bunch of G4 iBooks that kernel panic upon login unless booted in safe mode. But in safe mode Airport IS off (part of why I suspect it's causing the KPs) - so I can't use System Preferences to 'turn it off'. And when I use this command line hint, I get "interface en1 does not exist".

In System Preferences, I CAN delete the Airport configuration - but that's an 'undoable' action & I'm not sure it's wise. Any suggestions?
