Can't get XBMC

[Ezra923]

i hope I'm on the right forum for this. I've tried everything! I've installed putty, logged in with root and pass alpine followed all the commands everything worked, typed reboot. The ATV2 restarts and nothing, it stays the same how it was. it is jail broken because the FC settings are there. I've also tried numerous sites with diff commands including the xbmc site. Would anyone like to walk me thru? Thanks

It might be easier for you to install nitoTV and then use the nitoTV app on the AppleTV to install XBMC. Instructions @

Share exactly which guide or commands you used, so we can see what is happening.

This should work (i jsut installed on my friends ATV last night and it worked perfectly)

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
mkdir -p /Applications/AppleTV.app/Appliances
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
mkdir -p /Applications/XBMC.frappliance
wget http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2/deb/org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-3_iphoneos-arm.deb
dpkg -i org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-3_iphoneos-arm.deb
rm org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-3_iphoneos-arm.deb
reboot
