How to blacklist kernel modules?

I compiled Ndiswrapper from source. Then installed a wireless windows driver. After that I loaded the Ndiswrapper kernel-module with sudo modprobe ndiswrapper. Now my system stops during boot.

How can I unload the Ndiswrapper kernel-module?

    You can boot using a Live USB and modify the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file.

    Just add the module you don't want to load, e.g.

    blacklist ieee1394
blacklist ohci1394
blacklist eth1394
blacklist sbp2

    You can also blacklist modules from the bootloader.

    Simply add modprobe.blacklist=modname1,modname2,modname3 to your bootloader's kernel-line parameter list.

    For information on how to edit the boot parameters, go here: How do I add a kernel boot parameter?.
