Recompiling the Kernel on this old Pi (to add Appletalk) was prehaps not the best idea.. nearly 3 hours so far and its not done..

Over 6 hours now, I regret this choice.. should have maybe cross compiled.

So 20 hours of recompiling the kernel later and this does not work ? I set Appletalk as a built in driver, but for some reason It is not loading, and netatalk is not loading or setting up correctly, complaining about missing directory's/files all to do with netatalk mostly i,e "sudo: /etc/init.d/netatalk: command not found"
Also when I reran the A2Server setup it overote the kernel and modules again with a v3 kernel etc instead of my custom v4 w/ appletalk enabled as a built in driver ?
I dont get this at all. Its all a mess...

Unfortunately, the Pi probably stopped working many many hours before this and was not really compiling at all. You will likely have better results with a newer model Pi 2 or 3. They have much faster processors and more memory and should only take a few hours to compile at maximum. (I don't think the Pi 4 supports the required version of netatalk, so I would avoid it for this project)

So am in a bit of a bind tbh. I mean I could use one of them to do this by manualy setting up appletalk/netatalk etc i guess but that seems like a lot of effort..
