[ydl-gen] Airport Extreme Problem

[Derick Centeno]

Just my $.02 but could it be that the fellow writing the directions 
omitted stating that the reader (following his directions) is to create 
the directory on one's own via mkdir?

You did notice his caveat on the second line stating that the drivers 
are experimental and could "lead to an unusable system"?

Since your PB is brand spanking new, and still under warranty, why risk 
doing anything to it?  In other words. let TSS develop a solution their 
way.  And although I'm also interested in the utilization of Airport 
Extreme also (I have the earlier model PB -- without the DL drive); it 
seems to me that for the time being until TSS comes up with a solution, 
a reasonable compromise is to partition the PB drive so that you can 
utilize both YDL and OS X shifting from one environment to another 
according to what you use each OS for.

The other option, probably unpalatable, is to acquire and use a PCMCIA 
card while you are in YDL; a listing of supported devices is listed 
here:
