+---- Thread: [LINUX] Sam's beta image for Apple TV? (/showthread.php?tid=88518)
- garyi - 2011-01-07
Master the first boot was ages as it downloaded some stuff, now it takes around a minute.
In general I leave it on all the time so no worries for me.

Is this installation script already working? How can I run it (what are the commands)?
If I connect with filezilla via sftp then I get in and can scroll through the maps, but I cant change any files or upload new ones because I dont have the right permissions. I logged in with atv/atv, should I log in with something else?

There was a Wiki about that, but it disappeared a few month ago. I think it's outdated. Somebody with much more knowledge about OS X and Linux than I have, would have to be interested in writing a script / app for that.

Yep, and it's been asked and answered time and again - even within this thread. Resize the partition with parted and then resize2fs the filesystem. And use the search function on the forum - it works.

i create the usb stick like sams faq:
http://code.google.com/p/crystalhd-for-atv/wiki/LinuxInstaller

I can not log in via SSH using root/root. Has this been changed?

try atv/atv

Sorry if this has been explained already but if one has Sam's original image up and running, what changes/advantages are there in his new image?
I was getting ready to upgrade then the question of "why" occurred to me.

used search, installed hfsutil, build the patched parted tried to resize -> doesn't work...
Resizing partition with parted gives 'incompatible feature' error
a step-by step guide is really appreciatet...

So I finally got round to dowloading Sam's beta image but I've had a few issues which I'll list here so sorry if there repetition from previous posts.
First the image copied fine over to my USB key. I popped it into the ATV and powered up, and as in Sams explanation it took a bit longer but it pulled in the latest and greatest of XBMC and CrystalHD.
XBMC loaded fine, I got some video addons, changed the skin to Night and set up some shares, all working fantastic so far. I decided to get the DDS Fanart set up before doing anything else.
So I logged into the atv via ssh using atv/atv and I got the welcome message etc but when I tried the first line
Code:
cd .xbmc\userdataI got a message
Code:
-bash: cd: .xbmcuserdata: No such file or directoryI logged in with Fugu and had a browse around and sure enough I couldn't find an XBMC directory. I rebooted the ATV and now I'm getting a failed message on screen regarding ./Sync.sh.
I'm using the latest file from Sam, any help would be appreciated.

Was it .xbmc\userdata or .xbmc/userdata? There's a difference. From your error code, it looks like you did a backslash instead of a forward slash.
I've never used Fugu, but does it show hidden directories? Dot directories in *NIX are hidden so .xbmc is a hidden directory. The correct path should be:
Code:
/root/.xbmc/userdataFrom there you should be able to create and add the correct content to advancesettings.xml

SUCCESS!! Thanks Pumkinut, I tried the full path you gave me and it worked
Sync issue is fixed also, I retried Sams code and it worked the second time. thanks for the help!
