So lets pick up again from yesterday. Very cold weather in the Netheralnds so nice to stay at home at Kings Day!
 
Building ended nicely:
 
[ o.k. ] Kernel build done [ @host ] [ o.k. ] Target directory [ /root/output/debs/ ] [ o.k. ] File name [ linux-image-dev-sun8i_5.27_armhf.deb ] [ o.k. ] Runtime [ 49 min ] scp the deps directory to my Orangepi Zero and installed. Dont't forget to remove the empty extra directory in deps
Switch to debs directory on Zero aninstall with 
 
dpkg -i *.deb  
Reboot and check new kernel

For more about my current setup information:

You would adjust https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/sources/sun8i.conf#L16-L17 to point to Corentin's dwmac-sun8i-v5 repo/branch and then you need to disable most if not all patches since the majority will fail. Putting an empty file with same name in userpatches subfolder will do the job (I would start with disabling all patches except of the necessary 'packaging' patch). Performance with such a built kernel will be awful but that shouldn't matter if it's about trying to help him debug/fix the AppleTalk problem.

Yep, I just tested it: avahi-daemon also installs libavahi-common-data, libavahi-common3 and libavahi-core7 and that increases image size by 888 KB. IMO worth adding it.

I setup a RPi b+ as a Bonjour/IPP to EtherTalk Printserver with cups, netatalk 2.2.5 and Raspbian Wheezy.
It works without a glitch and prints from all my maschines.
I know your PAP Backend for a log time. It´s the Backend i use. Nice Work, thanks alot.
 
Somebody gave me the Bpi and i thought i´ll give it a try.

I've written a detailed guide on how to set up a Banana Pi with AppleTalk: http://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/appletalk_printserver_macos_and_osx
It also contains a link to an updated version of the PAP backend.

Hi twilipi
then it is clear. when you connect your two clients with a cable there is no DHCP server in this "network". So the desperate clients will construct an APIPA Address to try and communicate.
But when you connect the clients to your internet router, the DHCP server in it will give an other address to each client. you have to find out these new addresses! First on your macbook, say it will be something like 192.168.x.y. Then you can find out the address of your router, often 192.168.x.1.
and once you have this you enter your routers web interface with http://address.of.your.router .
There you can find out, what address it assigned to our opi, often in a list called "home network" or "DHCP table".
Finally connect to your opi at this address.
 

Ok. Took me 22 minutes to type an answer on my iPhone.... and see now that gnash   answered the post as well :-)
 
More or less same thing. No Armbian problem. Just network problems. 

OK. I can confirm now that the image with the kernel tkaiser helped to build also works on a Orange Pi Zero 256MB. So yes .... for $6.99 you have your own macipgw running on a Orange Pi Zero to surf the Internet with your Macintosh Plus, Powerbook 100 and other retro Apple computers without network card.

Small update. My image for a MacIPpi with the kernel 4.6.0 runs also fine on an Orange Pi Zero. Tested it on a 512MB one and ordered a 256MB one. To see if I get the cheapest appletalk tcp/ip router in the world :-)
 
Download it from: http://cdn.macip.net/Netatalk-MacIpgw-Image-OrangePiOne-V2.0.1.img.7z
Read about is on: http://www.macip.net/
 
And yes the Orange Pi Zero fits perfect in this matchbox but I wouldn't advice it......
