Boot and interrupt the GRUB menu | |
Edit the boot configuration, changing the "linux" line by adding these two parameters to the end of the line: | |
noexec=off noexec32=off | |
Then boot by pressing Ctrl+x. | |
After booting, you can check to see if DEP/NX is turned off by running: | |
dmesg | grep NX | |
When DEP/NX is turned off you should see something similar to this output: | |
# dmesg | grep NX | |
[ 0.000000] NX (Execute Disable) protection: disabled by kernel command line option |
