get binutils.tar.gz, copy it to the AppleTV, unpackit (use tar) and copy (using sudo cp) to /usr/bin/
top will need a "sudo chmod +s /usr/bin/top" to fix it up.
I can unzip the file to binutils.tar without problem. However tar -xf binutils.tar returns:
tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type
Stuffit does not recognize the file either. I have downloaded the file multiple times with the same result. I would appreciate a tip on unpacking the file and/or a link to another copy. Thanks.
