I am a new member of this forum and I would like some help, or assistance :confused2:, on installing Python on our Apple TV 1 firmware 3.0.2 because we want to get AirPlayer compatible on our AppleTV1 and be able to use it correctly as an AirPlay device. I am aware that you are not able to do this normally, but I have XBMC installed on our ATV and I have read a thread on how to get AirPlayer on the AppleTV but I'm still at the beginning: Installing Python on the device (apple tv) to follow the tutorial further, however.. I'm at a stage where I can't figure out what to do and in a bit of a twist. Here's my problem: I've tried two tutorials on how to install Python on the ATV but I'm stuck on one of the tutorials like so:

and the error says:

Many thanks and regards,
