canukhd Wrote:I seem to have the same problem as a previous poster. I downloaded the installer.img.gz from http://download.stmlabs.com/atv-images/installer/ and loaded it on a 4 Gig USB stick using USB Image Tool.exe under windows. I put the usb stick in the ATV1 and booted into linux but get:
[...] "connecting to svn.stmlabs.com:87.106.100.246:80... connected
http request sent, awaiting response ... 404 Not Found."
It appears to me that the install script in /home/atv/scripts/initialise.sh gets the file name for the wget http://svn.stmlabs.com/svn/crystalhd-for...s/install/"$DISTCHOICE" command from DISTCHOICE=`cat /.distro` but when I issue cat /.distro I get a blank line. This seems to be causing the 404 error. I tried issuing the wget command manually, but I get errors that zenity is not found.
I am new to linux so any help would be appreciated and apologize in advance if this is a dumb question. My goal is to install XBMC on the hard drive of my ATV1. I have been using pin87's image on a USB but need more space
Thanks
I got the same problem as canukhd last night when I gave this a try.
Followed the same process as well, downloaded the USB Installer image, put it on a stick using USBit and get a 404 after booting the apple tv.
The URL it is trying to hit seems to be
http://svn.stmlabs.com/svn/crystalhd-for...nstall/.sh
I checked from my PC and the SVN Repo contains IIRC 2 .sh files, 1 for crystal and 1 for ubuntu.
Confess to being a bit lost now as I'm a complete Linux noob.
