Hello
Becouse i had so much trouble to get it work, i hope i can help more ppl with this guide. And im writing like i did it. Using a Windows machine.
1. First jailbreak ATV2 with Seasonpass. (not going in how to do that in this forum)
2. When ATV2 is running use the program
Putty to SSH inside ATV2. (root/alpine is default login/psw)
3. Copy and paste this code below
Code:
mkdir -p /private/var/Applications
cd /Applications
mv * /private/var/Applications
cd /
rmdir /Applications (This won't delete unless the directory is empty...)
ln -s /private/var/Applications /Applications
cd
(Now you have moved all files from /Applications to /private/var/Applications to free some space on the first partition. Also deleted the /Applications map and did some link to the new directory. Not 100% sure about the last part)
4. Now we need first to install the Xbmc cydia build. Copy and paste again.
Code:
apt-get install wget
wget -O- http://apt.awkwardtv.org/awkwardtv.pub | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://apt.awkwardtv.org/ stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkwardtv.list
echo "deb http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2 ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list
apt-get update
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
(Dont know a shit what all of this commands does, but i did all of them and ignored all errors and after that Xbmc does a softreboot and you have Xbmc)
5. Now we install the latest nightly. Compiled 23 oct. Copy and paste
Code:
wget http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/darwin/atv2/xbmc-20111022-7e8111b-master-atv2.deb
dpkg -i xbmc-20111022-7e8111b-master-atv2.deb
(Now ATV2 will softreboot again. When thats done use the last command)
rm xbmc-20111022-7e8111b-master-atv2.deb
Congratulations. Now you have a fully worked Xbmc on 4.4.1
A last notification if the commands hangs.
Note: If the dpkg -i command hangs, stop it with CTRL+C so it can use the updated removal script in the new package. If that doesn't work, you'll need to manually remove the XBMC directory before installing the nightly, e.g. "rm -r /Applications/XBMC.frappliance" (will likely take 2 tries).
