I've been using your software on my older PPC Macs forever, but I'm going to have to update my Macs to linux because of some other software issues.

Would you be able to recompile the linux software to run on 32bit PPC, or let me compile it with source code?

If this isn't something that's possible, just let me know.  Thanks for all your help and your hard work in keeping this software going!

Hi, Andrew.

Cross-compiling for PPC should not be too difficult, since there are pre-built packages for the powerpc gcccross-compiler.

Try this:


I didn't compile adb, since I don't have the source code handy.  You should be able to do that yourself using the source from here:


The general structure is:

/usr/share/klink/:

adb
klink
klink-up.sh
klink-down.sh

The two .sh files must be owned by root with rx perms for group+other (i.e., chmod 755).

adb and klink are owned by root with klink being setuid (chmod +s).

You can then symlink /usr/bin/klink to /usr/share/klink.

Does that sound all right?

Kevin
