4. Make sure the check succeeds, *do not run the binary if it doesn't*!





    33

    38
    
    
    





    39
    
    
    
As @adb@ is built as a 32 bit binary, you will need to install compatibility libraries for 32 bits executables if your computer is running on a 64 bit architecture.

7. Make sure @adb@ can be executed:





    41
    
    
    
<pre>





    42
    
    
    
chmod a+x adb
