installing USB/ethernet adapter package...

Legacy 1st gen Apple TV
1

My ethernet port died on my appleTV. I have a Linksys USB300M ethernet connector I want to use via the USB port (to expedite syncing).

When I install the 10.4 driver package via command line, I get the following error:

dyld: Symbol not found: __ZTIN3KJS11InterpreterE
Referenced from: /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/JavaScriptGlue.framework/Versions/A/JavaScriptGlue
Expected in: /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaScriptCore.framework/Versions/A/JavaScriptCore

ATV is 3.02. Installed applications are Boxee 0.9.22.13692, Launcher 3.2.5 and NitoTV 0.9.4.

Here is the original package file:

Thanks in advance for any help.

If you’re running the command line installer, it will need to be done a bit differently on the AppleTV. You’ll need to reference the path to the proper frameworks. Below is the prefix you can use for the installer app.

DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH='/System/Library/Frameworks/OSXFrames/' installer

Although I got the install to complete with no errors, Apple TV is still not recognizing the ethernet adapter in the USB port. Do I need to add something else to enable this port, or are the required networking extensions simply disabled from the USB port? Here’s the command line I used and results.

DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH=’/System/Library/Frameworks/OSXFrames/’ installer -pkg AX88772.pkg -target / -verbose

=== verbose output from command above ===

 It's likely this type of device may not be supported on the AppleTV.  A number of frameworks that are present on a normal Mac, are not present on the AppleTV.

 Thanks Max.  I appreciate the help.
